You don't remember me
But I remember you
I watched and waited now for so long
I broke November free
Of all your hidden clues
I heard the listless words with no song
Nine flights down
With just the sound of growing old
Who could it be in your lost room
Blind nights sprawl
Without a single worried call
Who'd ever dare to wear that perfume
You don't recall the face
Or when it all began
But yours is changeless in my mind's eye
You don't recall the place
You contrived the secret plan
You forced the painless just to slide by
Nine flights down
With just the pounding of the drum
Who could it be in your lost room
Blind nights sprawl
Without a touch you can recall
Who'd ever dare to wear that perfume
You don't remind yourself
That you were once a girl
The pictures pass away like the low tide
You cannot find the shelf
You kept forsaken worlds
But I remember when you were wide-eyed
Nine flights down
With just the ground to break your fall
Who could it be in your lost room
Kind nights stall
Without a smile to lift the pall
Who'd ever dare to wear that perfume
Years go by and I'm dreaming still about you
Tears may dry but I'm ever lost without you
