You Must Remember This Trace your fingers across my lips You must remember this The light begins to fade until I don't exist Hold on, please hold on one more day The shoulder that I cried so many times upon Slowly turns away From a state of independence to a terminal decline With no escape and nowhere to hide And I'm living with a stranger I've known for all my life Falling in and out of time Water slide epiphanies, the smell of sea and and towel against your skin Over and over again Not all memories erase, a few as close as yesterday's, remain On the day we tripped over the tip of the iceberg When everything suddenly fell into place We watched as the world dissolved around us and left us lost in space I can guess at what you're thinking I can try to read your mind I can spend my waking moments by your side But I'm living with a stranger I've known for all my life Falling in and out of time When you hold my hand so tight I think my fingers have to break and I'm just another unfamiliar face And you're living with a stranger you've known for all your life Falling in and out of time
