If We Could Remember
RememberIf we could rememberThe moment of our birthWe give our voice to songs and whispersAnd know what life is worth
Remember, remember
Suddenly there's beautyIn pieces of the pastAnd sorrow clings to angry questionsThe days of dust at last
And morning holds usWhen worlds come tumbling downA dance of ghosts and ragged dreamsSpinning round, spinning round, spinning round
I remember, remember
If we could rememberThe power of the lightThat crippled prayers are sometimes answeredAnd hope survives the night, and hope survives the night
I remember, I remember, remember
