I Will Remember

I can't breathe
Sometimes the invitation is too much to bear and I must leave
Still I bleed
The wounds that losing you have left are waiting just beneath
You were real
Vibrant and alive, every memory is a moment I must steal
I will heal
But if healing means forgetting, then I'm better off with all the pain I feel

Everyone says that life goes on
I know I believe it
But I'm not pretending you're not gone
And I can't leave it

No dreaming tonight realizing that I will remember you
No making it right I'm broken and I will remember you

Every tear
Is enveloping a vision that one day I will lose I fear
Are you near
Because sometimes I hear your laughter
and I pray to God that you could still be here

Everyone says that life goes on
I know I believe it
But I'm not pretending you're not gone
And I can't leave it

No dreaming tonight realizing that I will remember you
No making it right I'm broken and I will remember you
No questioning why, no answers and I will remember you
No trying to hide, I promise that I will remember you
