Se Souvenir De Moi

Remember when the night was our's, we'd talk till it got light,

with just a look and not a word we'd know we were alright,

unspoken was our passion, we just knew that it was there,

and if no one else could see this love, we did'nt really care,

we danced when the music finished playing,

and we sang a different song, the world heard another melody,

we heard our unique love song,

                                                       "Se souvenir de moi"

Remember when we walked and we did not walk too far,

you were so excited when you spied that shooting star,

you were so insistent, on that star I made a wish,

I knew exactly what it was,

and so I whispered this...,

                                                   "Se souvenir de moi"

Remember me forever, when time stops and I must leave,

and those eyes that shined with so much love,

will shine still, through the tears,

yesterdays are memories,

whilst tomorrows yet unknown,

the reaper comes to harvest from the seeds of which we've sown.

when my final words are spoken, the last you ever hear from me,

remember me my darling, I'll never be too far
upon the breeze that catches you, I say...

                                                  "Se souvenir de moi"
