Your mind has begun to wander
     without me
For time has trespassed on your memory
     as time does
And anything you once were
     or I once was
Is locked away
Buried and hidden
And if we are forbidden
To ever go back
Will you be willing?
To search for some crack
In Reality's stone wall
Return with me
To the place before the Fall.

Before blank eyes stare
Into my heart laid bare
And "she'll be back again.."
Erodes me like acid rain
Because I'm right here
Before minor arthritis turns to paralysis of the mind
And renders us defined
By the ruthless laws of nature
While truth less words of decay
Force us to obey.

If only I could turn back the greying of your head,
     (Or if you could return with me to bed)
If the words of the Doctorhad never been said
I could rewire the rusted cables of your brain
And travel with you on this train
     of thought
Or is it selfish that I would feel pain?
Because you are losing our memories
But I am losing what is Mine.
Because I know you are blind
     (You must be)
When you say you can't find
Me, our love - my love -
Try to remember!

We stood facing each other
Hearts racing together
Hopes and dreams intertwined
Like our hands
Fingers tingling with glorious plans
As you whispered
"I'm right here"
Setting the world right
Softly, in my ear.

Do not fear what you cannot see
Dimmer eyes distinguish light
When brightness is not so bright.
So get back down on your knee
We won't drown if you cling to me
Though now relentless tides pull us apart
And thick fog hides the rythm of my heart.

How can I ask you?
     not to forget
My face wet with regret
That I didn't kiss you
     enough
God, I miss you
How can I tell you?
I'm right here
As I watch you disappear.
