Memory of You |
It’s uncanny |
It’s something strange |
It’s something I have |
Long tried to ignore |
Behind the curtain |
Behind the door |
If I keep my eyes cast down |
It just might go away |
It’s got no name |
It’s got no shape |
It can’t be photographed |
And it lives in no one place |
It’s got no shame |
And it knows no grace |
And it’s got two long arms |
Reaching out for me |
I hit the light |
I’ll take my stand |
Let’s have your best |
Show your hand |
The shadows run |
And I see true |
It’s just the memory of you |
So what’s your pleasure |
My phantom friend |
What thing could bring you out |
To haunt this world again |
Some sweet revenge? |
Some dread command? |
Or do you only need |
Someone to hold your hand? |
Why did you leave |
Your will so vague? |
Just three blue lines |
Across the page: |
You take the vase |
I’ll keep the rose |
And the memory of you |
