Remember Me

Back when I was in high school, probably around sophomore or junior year, we were watching this video on the holocaust. There was a story about a young boy and girl in a concentration camp. They became really good friends inside the camp, but then one day the boy was taken away and thrown onto a train heading towards one of the death camp areas. The girl managed to get around the guards and make it to the outside of the train where all she could see was her new friends hand sticking out of the barred windows, she held his hand outside the window and ran as far with the train as she could until she had to let go; she never saw the boy again...It was a really sad story and I wrote this song based on that...

What would you say,

If I had to take the next train,

Away from here,

Would you take the time to learn,

All there is to know,

Or would you hold me, 

Hoping time goes slow,

What would you do,

If I told you I had one day,

Left to spend with you,

Would you tell me everything,

That you needed to get out,

Or would you have us sing,

What would we sing about,

We would sing about the beauty,

The beauty that is you and me, 

Sing about the time you talked about our lives as elderlys

Sing about the past and the times we hold so high

They'll all just be a memory after tonight

We shared some laughs and let out cries, 

But nothing's worse than this goodbye,

Nothing could prepare me for this final look into your eyes,

The final laugh the final cry,

The final time we say goodbye,

Until we meet again, until we laugh again,

What would you do,

If I told you all of this, 

Was true,

That I'm leaving tomorrow,

And I don't know when,

I will see you again,

But I will see you then,

And we will sing about the beauty,

The beauty that is you and me, 

Sing about the time you talked about our lives as elderlys

Sing about the past and the times we hold so high

They'll all just be a memory after tonight

We shared some laughs and let out cries, 

But nothing's worse than this goodbye,

Nothing could prepare me for this final look into your eyes,

The final laugh the final cry,

The final time we say goodbye,

Until we meet again, until we laugh again...
