It breaks the heart
All these poets
Lost in translation

Its not that I never knew
The fearless truth
I just let her go
In my need for proof

She used to fill my days
And weave my dreams
But answers for critics
Won me over it seems

I panic now
My memory has lost her face
The facts of life sit without song in her place

So I walk the world
Knowing more and more
But without her courage
And increasingly unsure

Remember
Back then
Way back when
When we were young
And the world was new
When we were young
Way back when
Back then
Remember
