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")
