And so it erodes, from the septum to a numbed aorta

Yet I longed to run as I watched you grow smaller

And finally fade into the long perspective



This time you won't be calling out and I'll keep on longing

As you keep on walking



(chorus)

We'll never walk together through leaves and over bridges

Or hear the sound of bells ringing out from that lone tower



Steps strive towards forever

Yet broken limbs keep this child where he lies

Awol and choking on the bitter taste of desperation

The leaves still turn



This time you won't be coming back

A lifetime of longing, we all saw it coming

I longed to run



(chorus)



Remember me from time to time

And all I'd sacrifice in my life to share just one last walk with you

Remember me, remember virtue

Remember me



I won't fade away, just long for another day
