lyrics

There's a picture that appears when a name comes to your mind
Be it a photo or a film a random image caught in time
It's the same from friends to family to acquaintances
So If I could choose what you hold on to when I'm gone

Remember me like this
Running hard to find my way
Trying hard to choose the kindest words for the perfect thing to say
Remember me like this
Keeping my faculties from going south
Balancing between my fire burning up and blowing out
Remember me like this
Laughing til I can't stand straight
Looking at the whole world gratefully
If you remember me

There are tapestries and statues left to canonise the greats
But for us on smaller journeys that's a grade that we’ll never make
But we'll be filed away inside each other's memories
And If I could choose the hook you hang my efforts from

Remember me like this
Just before a new spark fades
Or trying to face another broken-hearted beat down with some grace
Remember me like this
Trying to get the washing dry
Making out the glowing embers of the twinkles in my eye
Remember me like this
Buzzing from a job done well
Chasing down a brand-new melody
If you remember me

At all, Remember me

Remember me like this
On the Saturday we put up the tree
In the breath of realisation that it's only you and me
Remember me like this
While this version of me still exists
With the strength of mind to make this pointless wish
Remember me like this
