Remember


Sing me a song,
A song about times remembered and times ahead
About loves found, loves lost and all the love in between
that still holds on like the last notes of a symphony brought to a close

Sing me a song and let's all sing it together
And not care for just a little while who's with who
Or who's mad at who, or if we've ever even been friends before.
Let's sing together and just forget.

Forget silence. Forget waiting.
Forget sitting watching and debating on
Whether or not to take the first step.
Forget the empty, forget the time,
Forget the stresses and the endless push
for more More MORE.

Remember, This. These people
This moment. Remember a feeling
When even those who sat apart were together.
Remember looking up and seeing the smile you've been waiting for
Coming from where you didn't expect it.
Remember how it felt to doubt the night could ever be done
And we would have to return to our lives at the end of this song.
Remember the cries of laughter and the roar of tears,
Remember twenty "one last songs."

In this no-one's land. In this space between stained glass worlds,
Take a minute. Take my hand. And let's sing a song and cry a tear together.
Let's smile and not think of whether we'll ever be together like this again.
We're here now. And that is perfect.
