Now I remember, I remember.
I remember why I held so tight
On to my security and stability
On to my sanity and peace

Now I feel, I feel.
I feel what I had sworn
I would never again
Because the pain was too great

Now I know, I know.
I know why I grasped so firmly
Yet slipping, yet sliding down the path
Deeper into the woods

Now I let go, let go.
I've let go and begun, like a child reading for the first time
Full of curiosity and wonder to discover again

Now I wake, I wake.
I awake every morning thinking of you
Longing for your touch
Your whisper, your kiss

Now I understand, I understand.
I'm understanding...
When I remember
When I feel
When I know
When I let go
When I wake...
life is empty. Without your presence... missing, lacking, void.

So now I search, I search
I am eagerly and desperately searching
For the moments when I feel your touch on my shoulder... your whisper in the wind... your kiss.
For but only a memory... those are the moments when life is full and I remember why now I love, I love.
I love... you.
A cascade from the heart
