Some memories linger

they curl up your toes

claws in your finger

and cut off your nose

in spite of yourself

you can't let 'em go

There are nights you remember

memories unchanged

you burn down the candle

to see what remains

rekindled they flicker

again and again and again

Oh you're here right next to me

a sudden change

you're lying right here with me

and it's strange

Oh you're here right next to me

dawn, the night turns to day

but the light still reflects on me

will I change

So strange

Oh you're lying right next to me

the night turns to day

the light still reflects on me

will we change

So suddenly strange
