How can I remember

things that never happened?

Arms that never held me,

lips I've never kissed.

How can I remember?



Why do I keep seeing someone's face before me,

eyes that say they know me,

shining through the mist,

eyes that I remember.



I don't know why or when or where.

I feel suspended in mid-air,

somewhere between a dream and a memory

Where then and now meet somehow?



Why do I keep hearing some familiar music

half forgotten love songs

running through my mind

why do I remember?



I don't know why or when or where.

I feel suspended in mid-air,

somewhere between a dream and a memory

Where then and now meet somehow.



There are many things I may not understand,

but somehow I knew that you would take my hand.

I always knew you'd find me,

always knew you'd love me.



Long before I met you

don't ask me how I know

ever since I can remember

I remember you.
