Subtle was the glow,
You were almost wearing the lines upon my face,
Age is never caring, no
There’s nowhere left to go.
“Hey stranger, do you know my name?
I never knew your strength back then,
I never knew we’d grown so old,
That scares me like they never said"
Cover me, please darling, won’t you stay a while?
I hope my body’s warm — tonight.
Please, remember me.
Softening the blow,
Cradled by the moonlight, the wine began to flow,
Kept it up ‘til sunrise, yes, ‘I remember you the best’
And she said,
“Hey stranger, are you keeping well?
I tried to call you once or twice,”
There’s no surprise you acted cold,
was always shadowed from my light
Cover me, “please honey, won’t you drink some more,”
I hope my body’s still tonight.
Please, remember me.
