What will remind me of the pain, the sadness
And the shades of black and darkness?
Once I walk away from here, it'll fade
And I'll always be sitting in the shade.
I won't forget you, never
There are no buts or maybe's.
I'll see you here forever
In my mind like newborn babies.
Every time I think of you
It'll be brand new.
The thoughts I have, so blue
And I'll hope you have them, too.
I need nothing to remind me
Of that pretty face you have, dear
But theres a thing that lets you free
The thoughts of reading Shakespeare.
I'll remember how you like him
And I hope you know I do as much.
I'll read him for you-- lights dimmed
But your smile will shine and clutch
So that darkness just can't touch.
