Remembering Me

Remembering Me I dreamed of you once You were just a child Running through a field Hair; tangled and wild Reflections of the sun Danced across your face And I wondered aloud How do I know this place You sat down cross-legged Under a magnificent tree You were singing a song With a familiar melody I sang along; eyes closed And tried to remember When I had loved life With as much fervor Soft rain began to fall So I joined you there You made a daisy chain And placed it in my hair Ring-around-the-rosy And hide-and-seek we played Peek-a-boo and Simon says A memory in time was made I wish I could be like you I whispered in the wind Being free and young again Enjoying games of pretend I didn't think you'd heard me You looked at me and smiled I am you, you see here now You've just been gone awhile I'm a book you forgot you'd read I've been hidden in your heart Just take me out and dust me off And you'll remember where to start
