That was the day the ancient songs of blood and war spilled from a hole in the sky And there was a long moment as we listened and fell silent in our griefand then one by one, we stood talland came togetherand began to sing of life and love and all that is good and true And I will never forget that day when the ancient songs died because there was no one in the world to sing them.

About This Quote

In the book, The Last Song, by Nicholas Sparks, the protagonist is a prisoner who is given a choice to hear his loved one's voice or hear the sound of a guitar. He chooses the guitar for the song "Angel from Montgomery" by Roger Miller. This song speaks of how our loved ones are always with us. They are not gone, but they are in our hearts.

If you lost someone, don't be sad for too long because there are people out there that love you and are happy that you are alive. It may not be your family or friends, but there are people that really care about you and want to see you happy.
