I found your words amongst your memories
For me to read when you are gone
And whence in time, I could not ever know
That tear-drop fell upon your note
(And it read)
"Please, forget-me-not
I may be gone, but not forever"
I'm home from work, so hard to turn the key
(I had to let you in)
But it's so cold for this time of year
I see you and I smile
Then you turned away, The mirror doth betray
I know you hide your pain,
In my head I say
Please, Forget-me-not
I may be gone, but not forever
One day, when you're alone
And maybe think you're on your own
I'll be there with you
We know that our last Summer has gone
But I don't want to face The Fall alone
This world, alone, has gone
Alone we're born unto this world and
Alone we'll leave, to where our summer has gone
We bend to kiss, I softly touch your hair
(Just like we did in Spring)
My fingers, numb now, can barely feel
Once upon a time I'd have almost flown that flight of stairs
My failing hands now grip the balustrade
Inside my heart I'm singing . . .
Please, Forget-me-not
I may be gone, but not forever
One day, when you're alone
And maybe think you're on your own
I'll be there with you
