[Intro] [Verse 1] He raised his eyes β and knew me not, Though I stood there in the gloom. I watched the light within him die, And leave an empty, silent room. He stands so near β yet I am naught, I remember. You forgot. [Chorus] You are near β yet you are gone, You remember β or you don't. I remember. I remember still. I remember. Always will. [Verse 2] We swore upon the ash and stone, That death would not unmake the vow. You drank β and all the world was lost, Forgot my face. Forgot me now. You live β but not the one I knew, I remember. Ash. And yew. [Chorus] You are near β yet you are gone, You remember β or you don't. I remember. I remember still. I remember. Always will. [Bridge] I do not cry. I do not call. I only know: it must be true. I will not leave. I will not fall. I stay with you β though you're not you. [Final Chorus] You are near β yet you are gone, You remember β or you don't. I remember. I remember still. I remember. Always will. [Outro] I remember... I remember... I remember... ...for us both.
