In Memoriam

Took a sip from a bottle of orange soda

suddenly you were back

On my bike years ago

Flashing the camera

you passed by, so quickly

I remember you

so remember me

as I was back then

in my ripped blue jeans

moments ago

It seems to me

that we were just kids

in a memory

I still see the blue, sunken barge

down by the shore and I

can taste the blackberry juice on our fingers

but there's an echo of careless, callow footsteps

that run by so quickly

I remember you

so remember me

as I was back then

in my ripped blue jeans

moments ago

It seems to me

that we were just kids in a memory

in a memory

It feels good to forget how wonderful it was

in the noise of a crowd

but sometimes cars in the night

sound like the ocean and

then I swear

I'm back there

seems so real

it disappears

I remember you

so remember me

as I was back then

in my ripped blue jeans

moments ago

It seems to me that we were just kids in a memory

moments ago

It seems to me

that we were just kids

in a memory

moments ago

It seems to me

that we were just kids in a memory

in a memory

in a memory
