Remember me
Just the way I used to be
And so you know, I haven’t gone far
Just look around you
I’m wherever you are
Now I’m joking with the upstairs clowns
But I don’t ever want to see you frown
I’m the air you breathe; it’s surely worth it
Now I’m the star of my very own circus
There’s just one thing I ask of thee
Do not forget to remember me
Wash off the sadness, paint on a brand new face
I’m always here, even if I’m not taking any space
Everything happens for a reason
Even if it takes some time to get
Only 86,400 seconds in a day
Do not waste them with regret
So listen up please – this is worth knowing
When the thunder rolls in, do not fear
It’s just me in my Heaven bowling
And whenever it’s raining, I’m crying for you
To not forget me, and the things I’d do
I had everything and more
Children, Grandchildren, and a beautiful wife
And when you start to miss me, do not fret
Remember me; I am your life.
