Somewhere in the back of my mind
I remember how it used to be
I have tried to leave it well enough behind
Tried to let it go, to leave it be
Pray love, I remember
Did you find, did you find it?
Love, do you remember me?
It doesn’t matter which way I turn
It doesn’t seem to matter what I do
The night is cool and quiet now but still I burn
Everywhere, everywhere is you
Pray love, I remember
Never come, never come back
Oh, do you remember me?
Pray love
Oh you are the curse upon my soul
My bitter stain, my heavy toll;
You are the burden of my heart
The cross that I must carry
You are the sorrow of my days,
The penance for my sins unpaid
You are Affection’s enemy
Why do you follow me?
Pray love
There’s something to be said for having lost
I remember how it used to be
Loving none too wisely has a raging cost
But now I know, I claim the Fire in me
I remember, in the Wind,
in the Wildfire, wild and free
Pray love, remember
In the garden, under moonlight,
By the mare’s tail
Oh, you’ll remember me
Pray love
