Dec 2014
Remember who we were,
I know it has been so long.
Take my memories with you
And I might come along.
So many miles to walk back on,
Even the smiles will haunt.
Wish I could tell you-
There's so much more to this life,
Than just our needs and wants.
Hear me for the last time-
All of my rights and wrongs.
Wish I could sing to you-
For every old man has a song.

Yesterday we were young-
Now even tomorrow feels so old.
Left so much unseen and unheard,
Now there's nothing left but-
An incomplete tale to be told.
I still can't remember your face,
So much to accept and be-hold.
How is that you're still so beautiful,
Even after watching so many springs-
Die and be cold.
Do they ever remind you of us,
Back when we were whole.
Wish you could tell me then-
That love is meant to die for.

When does it all change,
An old man has not a clue.
And the time never waits,
We all have to pay our dues.
From the summer mornings-
To the winter blues.
The moments-
Are so far and inbetween,
In our hearts and few.
There's not much left within-
To hang onto something new
And even when it lay all around me,
All that mattered was you.

When the darkness held me-
I heard myself whisper your name.
Your face was all I could see-
And I knew I was in love again.
Like I've always been,
I felt the same.
An old mans dream-
To be young once again.
Like the last page of a book,
That wants to be read once again.
Only without the questions
And the answers-
I wish I could've changed.
And when I'm gone-
I'll know deep in my heart,
That a story remains.


Embrace me for who I am
And what I am,
Will be yours to keep.
I wish I could make you understand,
When I'm gone -
There's no need to weep.
Look at me like you always did,
For I'm just falling asleep.
Kiss me for I'll need it,
Before you leave.

Love me O' love me
And I would happily be alone
Kiss me O' kiss me
And I might find my home.
