Remember Me Fondly

The colour drained from my face Blue skies turned to grey Black and white streets in photographs became my every day Who was I to think that I could walk away? I was torn up by the words you heard me say I pause at the door I turn and watch you sink to the floor There's got to be more to life than an empty promise and red lights The flickering lamp at your bedside I want to stay so much more than you think To see you writing your poems in black ink Turn the page and read on I will sing you this song Until we end the chapter As you walk these roads you'll see Reflections in windows of you and me I hope that you remember me fondly My eyes are beginning to tire I dance with your memory by the fire The embers are singing a love song... And it burns I don't know if you would care to know that I was fully aware of my absence And it made my lead feet wander to the thought of you Turn the page and read on I will sing you this song Until we end the chapter As you walk these roads you'll see Reflections in windows of you and me I hope that you remember me fondly
