That diamond died but its soul lives on
The world cried but he's not gone
His words take to the skies
His melodies, they rise
You can see the light if you just hold on
You can hold back the night with a familiar song
Just strum a chord and you shall find
His memory is stored in the words he left behind
He lives on and moves all the people
Wasn't here long, he goes on up
But you know he lives on and he moves all the people
Wasn't here long, he goes on up
There's a star added to the sky
Watching over us as the days go by
As the world keeps on turning
We can still feel his flame burning
He lives on and moves all the people
Wasn't here long, he goes on up
But you know he lives on and he moves all the people
Wasn't here long, he goes on up
We gotta hold on to the people we love and the people we care about so
Gotta hold on to the people we love and the people we care about so
We gotta hold on to the people we love and the people we care about so
We gotta hold on to the people we love and the people we care about so
We gotta hold on to the people we love and the people we care about so
We gotta hold on, goes on up
