Remember me. (If you love me)

Looking to the future and what it may bring,
Makes me ponder on all of the things,
That'll come, and those that will never be,
The man I'll become, the things I'll do and see.


I drift away and go to,
A time when I'm not around,
I wonder if someone'll still remember me,
Even after I'm buried six feet underground.


If you love me, remember me,
Think of me for a while and then let me go,
If you hate me, cast me out and be free,
Life's too precious to waste it so.


I can't wrap my head around the "not being here",
Guess the "where do you go" part's got me knee-deep in fear,
I wanna live before I die,
But I also wanna remain, after I fly.


When I've shed my last look upon the world,
And everything around me grows thin,
Will I hear the solemn cry of a colourful girl,
While I'm slipping into an unknown setting.

If you love me, remember me,

Think of me for a while and then let me go,

If you hate me, cast me out and be free,

Life's too precious to waste it so.

Every step I take,

Gets me closer to a place,

I'm too afraid to know,

I just don't wanna go.

If you love me, remember me,

Think of me for a while and then let me go,

If you hate me, cast me out and be free,

Life's too precious to waste it so.

Just hold me for a while

I feel the darkness aproaching,
Can't tell if it's good or bad,
Feel the urge of returning,
Of going back.

Afraid to see what lies ahead,
I'm petrified,
I'd rather stay here instead,
But I know it's time to say goodbye.

Just hold me for a while,
As I slip away,
Just hold me for a while,
There's nothing left to say,
Just hold me for a while,
Don't let myself get in the way,
Just hold me for a while,
Forever and a day.

Soon my eyes will see no more,
Everything is fading to black,
The knob's turning on it's own, don't wanna see what's behind the door,
Fear sinks in, my heart's racing, I know I can't go back.

My memories like leaves that fall from the trees,
They're all sliding away,
Flying out of my head and away from me,
And not unlike them, I'm unable to stay.

Just hold me for a while,
As I silp away,
Just hold me for a while,
There's nothing left to say,
Just hold me for a while,
Don't let myself stand in the way,
Just hold me for a while,
Forever and a day.

Just hold me for a while,
Just hold me for a while.

'Til I've passed on,
'Til I'm gone.

Where I long to be

You know when your mind wanders away,

Back to happier times,

You remember your childhood loves,

The first time you listened to your favorite band,

Or the first time that a person held your hand,

And you look around at your life today,

And you ask yourself,

When did the person you used to be went away,

'Coz now the good times ain't as good,

And the happy times aren't as gay,

But the bad times sure are bad,

As the sad times are surely the saddest ones,

If only you could go back,

To when everything was magical,

When love was just automatical,
You didn't have to pray for it to be reciprocal,

To when a handshake was a real one,

When it wasn't a prelude to the stab to come,

To when everything was so simple,

Now it's all complicated and radical,

Take me back and leave me,

Where I long to be.

You go through your old school pictures,

Then you look at your face in the mirror,

You begin to realize that you ain't gonna be young again,

Then you understand that someday your story will end,

It hits you like a freightrain, one day you'll die,

But you've gotta pick yourself up off the floor, open up the door,

And go out to live 'til you die, it ain't no time to sit around and cry,

Though at times you'll go

If only I could go back,

To when everything was magical,

When love was just automatical you didn't have to pray for it to be reciprocal,

To when a handshake was a real one,

When it wasn't a prelude to the stab to come,

To when everything was so simple,

Now it's all complicated and radical,

Take me back and leave me,

Where I long to be.
