Rush

Suddenly, you were gone
from all the lives you left your mark upon.
I remember
how we talked and drank into the misty dawn.
I hear the voices.
We ran by the water on the wet summer lawn.
I see the footprints.
I remember.
I feel the way you would.
I feel the way you would.
I feel... I feel the way you would
Tried to believe but you know it's no good.
This is something that just can't be understood.
I remember
The shouts of joy skiing fast through the woods.

I hear the echoes

I learned your love for life. I feel the way that you would.
I feel your presence.
I remember.
I feel the way you would.
I feel the way you would.
This just can't be understood...
