Melding shapes against a ruby sky
That was you and I
Unspooled and scarless we were
Shatterproof against the wild world
God, your smile girl
Could silence vanity
But life let go just like an
avalanche
One last dance and our love was
vanished
Now you're a precious name in my
parentheses
You'll forever live in the footnotes of my memory
You, my love, will always be
My favourite apostrophe
I'll remember you
So remember me
In parentheses
One sip of gin and I will think of you
How you used to get drunk on
Tanqueray and
Climb on the tavern bar and sing a song
We'd all sing along
Baby
we
were
born
to
run!
You, my love, will always be
My favourite apostrophe
I'll remember you
So remember me
In parentheses
So if you get a feeling now and then
and you're wonderin'
Who's thinking of you, know its
Somebody fixed in the parentheses
of your narrative, in the footnotes of your memory
You my love will always be
(first moves)
My favourite apostrophe (fixed eyes)
I'll remember you (drawn out...)
So remember me (...goodbyes)
In parentheses
