After the Fall

(THERESA) Time Only time Could never take me away from you And why Should it try Time never cares just what we do It just sits on a star And gazes down Dropping it's moments all around And if I could wish upon that star I would find what you dream And then ask God to grant it I wanted To say this Long before this dark would fall At night I Would pray this Then wonder if god heard at all For the chances I've had are now long gone And that star is no longer wished upon For in this night it seems too far away Try I have tried To pretend that I don't care But then Sleep arrives And in every dream I find you there But I don't want the past to be my life And I don't want to live inside the night But I don't want to see your shadow fade So I sleep and I dream Though I don't understand it I wanted To say this Long before this dark would fall At night I Would pray this Then wonder if god heard at all for that star is no longer wished upon For in this night it seems too far away You can live your life in a thousand ways But it all comes down to that single day When you realize what you regret What you can't reclaim but you can't forget If I could just fall back into my life And find you there inside this night And let eternity just drift away (Beethoven realizes that Theresa never would have cared about his deafness and is crushed as he realizes what might have been. To ease the pain of his regret, Fate then shows him glimpses of the future and the countless musicians who will be inspired by, and build upon the legacy of his music. She then allows him a final vision; a vision in which he improvises with musicians from the past by whom he was inspired, as well as musicians from the future, who will be inspired by him.)
