You saved me, you should remember me...

You saved me, you should remember me I found you, but I don’t even know you I thought I knew you, but then something important disappeared You’ll know soon, what I mean Because after that, I awoke And in awakening I saw light Light maybe just of the sun rising over the hills But I think the light was a sign For light can never be scary No matter how far or how wide you travel, the light will always be your companion You can see great distances and feel warmth in a deserted place- When the light is near. But when the light disappears You feel the fog roll in But you cannot see it, for the darkness presses down Lands seen and recognized for days on end Seem like strangers at night And what I’ve noticed is this: No matter how many days I spend near, No matter how much I know you and see you my dear Eventually the light disappears And the darkness blankets what I once saw.
