[Em]I feel my [Bm]heart explode to particles
[C]Love is always here, [G]and I told you so
[Bm]Restless in dreams, [Em]love carved in stone
[Bm]This rhapsody of life in a [C]way I guess we all know it
[G]Hand in hand, we stand [Bm]while we watch you flow
[C]Heaven, can you help [D]us? No, we can't go
[Em]Covered by roses when [Bm]this dance is over
[C]We all know [D]our beauty will die
[Em]The choirs have awoken, [D]left our words unspoken
[Em]Remember you as [D]long as I can
[A]Hold you in [Em]my arms all night
[D]And spill the [A]wine until the end
[Em]We all have [D]our place in time
[A]Need to [Em]live every moment
[D]We built our castles high, [A]turned our dreams to gold
[C]We took the blows with [D]pride, went through it all
[Em]The dawn is closing [D]in, new tales are told
[A]This rhapsody of life in a [Em]way I guess we all know
[Bm]Covered by roses when [C]this dance is over
[G]We all know [Bm] your beauty will die
[Em]The choirs have awoken, [Bm]left our words unspoken
[C]Remember you as [G]long as I can
[Bm]Hold you in [C]my arms all night
[D]And spill the [Em]wine until the end
[Bm]We all have [C]our place in time
[D]Need to [Em]live every moment
[D]For all we are is [Em]falling stars in the night
[D]A blinding light raging [A]down from the sky
[Em]The rise and fall, [D]the rhapsody of our lives
[A]It's all we are and [Em]know we've gotta let go
[D]♪
[A]She dwells with Beauty, [Em]Beauty that must die
[D]And Joy, whose hand [A]is ever at his lips
[C]His soul shalt taste [D]the sadness of her might
[Em]And be among [D]her cloudy trophies hung
[A]Covered by, [Em]covered by
[Bm]Covered by roses when [C]this dance is over
[G]We all know [Bm] your beauty will die
[Em]The choirs have awoken, [Bm]left our words unspoken
[C]Remember you as [G]long as I can
[Bm]Hold you in [C]my arms all night
[D]And spill the [Em]wine until the end
[Bm]We all have [C]our place in time
[D]Need to [Em]live every moment
