these are the lyrics i wrote in memory of the children of beslan (Russia)
who lost their lives at the hands of terrorists last year

we wanted to do a tribute song that had an uplifting feel to it
and have lyrics that didnt dwell on the terrible event.

we tried to write a song that the children themselves could relate to.
and one that was sung from the perspective of those parents wanting to hold their murdered kids "One more time"

the song is titled "One more time" and can be heard at our website at
http://www.callisto.tv

the lyrics are as follows


ONE MORE TIME

THE RAIN IS FALLING
I’M ON THE LONG ROAD HOME
THE AUTUMN WINDS ARE CUTTING THROUGH ME
AND AS I’M WALKING THROUGH THIS WILDERNESS
OF YOU AND ME
YOUR BROKEN DREAMS
KEEP CRAWLING DEEPER IN MY MIND

BUT I CAN STILL RECALL YOU SMILING
AND AS I LOOK AHEAD
AT LIFE IN FRONT OF ME
I ONLY WANT TO TOUCH YOU
I ONLY WANT TO HOLD YOU
ONE MORE TIME

AND YOU AND I
WE ARE JUST TINY GRAINS OF SAND
THERES MORE BEHIND THAN WHATS BEFORE ME
AND WE ARE NOTHING IN THE GRAND DESIGN
OF LOVE AND LIFE
TOMORROWS DREAMS
COULD ALL BE WASHED UP ON YOUR SHORE

CHO

AND ALL THE YEARS
HAVE NEVER LEFT A TASTE OF PAIN
BUT SEE YOU ONCE AND I’D REMEMBER
AND YOU LEFT NOTHING BUT THE SHELL OF
WHAT I USED TO BE
I ALWAYS DID BELIEVE
YOU LOVED ME LIKE YOU SAID
