The waves wash up and over my feet,
As I walk, my footprints remain in a trail behind me,
But looking back, there is only one set of them,
I just forget you're gone,
But in my heart, your memory lives on.
As the tide comes in and the wind blows against me,
I pull my shawl closer,
But you're gone now, not here to keep me warm,
But, always, in my heart, your memory lives on.
As the sun sets, the moon rises, and the stars come out,
The water shimmers, the whales start to sing, and the air cools,
The tears of pain flow, I realize I'm still all alone
But even so, my love, forever, in my heart, your memory will live on.
