How should I say those words again,
When I know they'll slip away like rain?
You will forget them, quiet and still,
Like shadows lost beyond the hill.

Do you remember the words I spoke,
When the weight of the world nearly broke
My fragile heart? You stood so near —
A shoulder to lean on, a hand sincere.

Your touch was calm, a quiet sea,
Serenity resting inside of me.
I held you close, so tender, so fine,
Believing, somehow, you'd always be mine.

But how should I say you've forgotten me,
While time drifts on like a restless sea?
You move as though I mattered once,
But now I’m a page in a story that hunts
For meaning lost in the folds of time,
A wish you took for granted, sublime.

Was I just a moment, a fleeting grace,
A name you won't even bother to trace?
Tell me, how should I say it again —
These words that vanish like drops of rain?
