Say you'll remember me.

Not for the pink bows,

that I choose to wear in my hair.

Not for my skin,

that you always preferred fair.

And especially,

not for the way I tell long stories.

Remember me for my grace,

not my face.

How I can captivate a room.

Remember me for my words

that will forever circle through your head.

Remember me in your weakest moments,

when you have no one else to turn to,

and maybe in your happiest, too.

When you're on top of the world,

and wish you could share it with me.

When you search to find someone who can't complete you,

remember the feelings i gave you--

and how i'll never find myself again

because a part of me is with you.

Just remember me,

and the legacy

I will leave behind.

I know you'll remember me,

because no one forgets

the love of their life.

Someday,

my name will be all around for you to see;

you'll never be able to escape me.

i know you won't erase our memory.

Remember me--

whether it's tomorrow,

when you're 30,

or 55,

and just know

you let go

of an inspiration.

Be careful what you wish for

because you went out with a curse.

You drank your poison.

I find myself going back though,

“My sweet escape” playing on the radio.

When the sun poured in

Right onto your skin.

I’d never seen a portrait quite so picturesque.

So remember me,

like i'll always remember you.

Remember me.
