|
I remember a faraway laugh |
|
A sweet caress |
|
You'd help me zip up my dress |
|
I remember your arms around my neck |
|
21 shells wrapped in my nest |
|
Endlessness |
|
Didn't last |
|
I won't change |
|
Given the chance |
|
And I remember no place for me to hide |
|
Before you came home at night |
|
I remember you turning out the lights |
|
All I ever saw was the red in your eyes |
|
No big surprise |
|
Happened nearly every night |
|
Your own flesh and blood |
|
I did wonder why |
|
I remember not knowing what to say |
|
And how calm you had remained |
|
Your child stillborn with no name |
|
I remember the never-ending summer rain |
|
Oh |
|
Please don't let what was get in the way of what's next |
|
Don't forget |
|
That what's to come hasn't come yet |
