Challenge... Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Tribute.

Ice covered ponds and snow covered beaches Lost memories of Clemintine, Rush back to me at once As I listen to this tape... Rewind, and listen again It seems that she forgot me, And I forgot her too Like three boxes of puzzle pieces, scattered out before me Confusion has set in In an attempt to rebuild, Lost memories of Cleminitine I wish I'd stayed Now I wish I'd stayed I wish I had done a lot of things I walked out the door There's no memory left I wish I had kept, Lost memories of Cleminitine And "How happy is the blameless, Vestal's lot, The world forgetting, By the world forgot, Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, Each prayer accepted, Each wish resigned." (Last few lines pulled from Alexander Pope's "Eloisa to Abelard")
