I recall at the end of it all
You were on your knees and i was standing tall
But is my memory deceiving me?
Was i hanging there while you prayed for me?
Remember how when the show was done,
We were dancing and singing and having some fun,
Then i heard you speak, your voice was bleak---
"what we forget we must repeat."

R-e-m-e-m-b-e-r, r-e-m-e-m-b-e-r

I remember the tricks of the trade,
Who got left behind and who made the grade,
And i don't need the pages of some master plan
To tell me what to do or tell me who i am
But when all is said and all is done,
Under the yellow glow of a setting sun,
It really doesn't matter what you have done,
You are blind and deaf and dumb

R-e-m-e-m-b-e-r, r-e-m-e-m-b-e-r

I remember an endless space
And the tolling bells of some holy place
Is it a dream that comes back to me
Or a memory that i can barely see?
Not the voices that haunt my mind
Of the friends and lovers i have left behind.

What i see, what comes back to me,
Is a place i cannot find.

R-e-m-e-m-b-e-r, r-e-m-e-m-b-e-r
