The Memory

Will you slip into my mind today

Of course you will, you're here to stay

But the memory of your face is getting hard to find

And like me, do you still walk the path of time.

Or did you, so many years ago

Get killed in that terrible war

I'll never really know for sure

Are you, like me, getting old and...

Do you remember the promises we made

Or like me, does your memory begin to fade.

Do you remember? I promised to always love you

Well... Another year has come and gone

And still your memory lingers on.

Yes.. I've kept that promise; you're part of me still

I loved you then, I always will..

Even until the end of time... you, with your faith..

And I… with mine.
