Now
Now
Lest I forget the nearness
Of friends so far away
Remind me to remember them,
For time soon slips away
Today is here to count on
Tomorrow is not yet ours
Remind me to remember
Today is just but hours
To feel the need to reach out
To touch on someone new
Remind me to remember
Old true friends are so few
To reach an age of learning
To know, to love, to feel
Remind me to remember
The things that are, so real
To feel the love of others
And live for just the day
Remind me to remember
For the moments slip away
