Moutain Breeze

The breeze blowing down from the mountains
Stirring trees, shifting sand, tossing leaves
But it doesn’t clear my mind
Doesn’t sweep the thoughts of you away

If I stand here long enough
Will it erase your tracks
The imprints left on my heart
Holding me at night under the stars

The memories rush over me 
Like the tides crashing to shore
And nothing I do will make me forget
The time you were, my time with you

Do you remember, did it leave a trace
At night under the stars I sit and think
And wonder if you have forgotten
The memory filed away when you left
