lyrics

if you know my name then you know my ways
it shouldn't matter how far I've strayed
don't say things that you can't unsay
why make rules that we can't obey

if the night seems to come too soon
if the drums fill up the room
tied your hopes to a red balloon
then they float away

now you watch the sky for birds of prey
they dive for their dinner then soar away
clouds these parts hang low for days
the streets and buildings are all steel grey

if your likeness is never pressed in bronze
if your name is never sang in songs
you imagine that it won't be long
until memory fades

now you see there's but one clear way
if all is forgotten and all decays
don't think of me after I've gone away
remember the heat of the fire I blazed

if a moment is all we'll ever know
then what we lost we can just let go
turn instead to the warming glow
another breaking day
