REMEMBER
There you sit and stare at me
You don't remember my name
Once you held me in your arms
You'd have never believed anyone who'd said you'd forget

You take my hand and bring it to your face
Your skin remembers me now
Memories in a distant place
I would go there together with you but I don't know how

And you want to go home but you don't know where
And your head's full of stories I wish you'd share
And you want to be with me but I can't stay
I've got my life far away

I cry for you..Who knew...All my life I was afraid that you'd leave but never in this way..

Paper piles, you kept for years
of hopes, and plans -your dreams
Photographs of you and me
And the love I forgot to feel is closer it seems

Now I'm taking you home to another place
with showers and meals from another face
I'll be back here to see you 'soon as I can
Will you remember me?
Oh how I wish you'd remember me, then...

Stunning, sensitive, haunting, poignant. Incredibly well written and beautifully melodic song.
