What To Say

Look in her eyes as if to say that she fears nothing

All knowing smile like nothing has changed

She thinks, I'm asleep while at night she goes on trembling

She thinks, I don't know how her life's been rearranged

Can't move my arms, can't move my legs

Can barely move my eyes

To take in the last view I'll ever see

It's on the stand beside my bed a picture of my son

It's constantly staring back at me

Want to tell him that I swear that if I can I'll be there

Watching over him and every step he takes

How do I say soon comes the day

When I must go away

What would adhere to a seven-year-old ear?

Words that would make it clear

I hope that you don't forget me

Don't let my memory fade, it's my greatest fear

My back is numb, my feet are cold

I fear that it's only a matter of time now

There's just one thing

I've got to muster the strength to say

Know that my love is forever

Know that and try to remember

Don't let my memory fade

Don't let my memory fade

Don't let my memory fade

Don't let my memory fade

Don't let my memory fade
