When I grow old
|
And my memory
|
Leads me deep into the fog where it abandons me
|
Will you remind me
|
Of who I used to be
|
When I was younger?
|
|
When I am old
|
And the hands of time
|
Have ravaged all the remnants of my fragile mind
|
Will you still tell me
|
Of how it used to be
|
When I was stronger?
|
|
If time is cruel
|
And it takes away
|
All the recollections of my younger days
|
Please help me reminisce
|
Of all these past events
|
When days were brighter
|
|
And years from now
|
When I can't recall
|
The faces and the names I used to know so well
|
Promise you'll help me
|
Regain those memories
|
When my load was lighter
|
|
When we were young
|
And the world seemed
|
Full of nothing else but possibility
|
I still remember
|
Blankets of whispers
|
That said 'Forever'
|
|
But if autumn comes
|
And your love for me
|
Has withered like the leaves that fall from every tree
|
Will you lie to me
|
So I can still believe
|
That you still love me?
|
That you still love me?
|
