I remember you
In that vivid blue
In our salad days
Like a dream I knew
Would be over soon
And that's what made it seem
So beautiful
Do you remember me?
I was staying gold
I was still in tune
I was coming up
I was making moves
And the summer moon
In the summer sky
Was a perfect thing
I never wondered why
There will be no more counting curses
I will pay my debts
In the life I have left
I should be running now but it won't let me go
It won't let me go
This year has been a slow defeat
(I dream, I wake, in hands I hold)
And I don't know what's up with me
(A loss, a wake, we hope, we pray)
Everything I touch just turns to stone
(A hope, a dream, a home)
When you're on your own
When the winter's rough
When the love that's left
Is the realest stuff
And in autumn leaves
Pile the passing years
And you wonder how
You found yourself here
Soon the birds will fly
Soon the trees will grow
Soon the bells will ring
Soon the moon will glow
And that summer moon
In that summer sky
Will be a perfect thing
On a perfect night
On a perfect night
There will be no more counting curses
I will pay my debts
With the life I have left
I should be running now but it won't let me go
It won't let me go
This year has been a slow defeat
(I dream, I wake, in hands I hold)
And I don't know what's up with me
(A loss, a wake, we hope, we pray)
Everything I touch just turns to stone
(I dream, I wake, in hands I hold)
(A loss, a wake, we hold a hope, a dream)
You're not alone
You're not alone
This year has been a slow defeat
(I dream, I wake, in hands I hold)
And I don't know what's up with me
(A loss, a wake, we hope, we pray)
Everything I touch just turns to stone
(I dream, I wake, in hands I hold)
(In hands I hold)
In that vivid blue
In our salad days
Like a dream I knew
Would be over soon
And that's what made it seem
So beautiful
Do you remember me?
I was staying gold
I was still in tune
I was coming up
I was making moves
And the summer moon
In the summer sky
Was a perfect thing
I never wondered why
There will be no more counting curses
I will pay my debts
In the life I have left
I should be running now but it won't let me go
It won't let me go
This year has been a slow defeat
(I dream, I wake, in hands I hold)
And I don't know what's up with me
(A loss, a wake, we hope, we pray)
Everything I touch just turns to stone
(A hope, a dream, a home)
When you're on your own
When the winter's rough
When the love that's left
Is the realest stuff
And in autumn leaves
Pile the passing years
And you wonder how
You found yourself here
Soon the birds will fly
Soon the trees will grow
Soon the bells will ring
Soon the moon will glow
And that summer moon
In that summer sky
Will be a perfect thing
On a perfect night
On a perfect night
There will be no more counting curses
I will pay my debts
With the life I have left
I should be running now but it won't let me go
It won't let me go
This year has been a slow defeat
(I dream, I wake, in hands I hold)
And I don't know what's up with me
(A loss, a wake, we hope, we pray)
Everything I touch just turns to stone
(I dream, I wake, in hands I hold)
(A loss, a wake, we hold a hope, a dream)
You're not alone
You're not alone
This year has been a slow defeat
(I dream, I wake, in hands I hold)
And I don't know what's up with me
(A loss, a wake, we hope, we pray)
Everything I touch just turns to stone
(I dream, I wake, in hands I hold)
(In hands I hold)
