Now I Must Remember - Bent

Do you ever think that

This is now I must remember?

You take in all around you

Colours, taste and smell

Before it fades like a dying ember

All day

Replay

The rush of life

Makes a memory distant

I had coffee with rum

Sang along to the drums

Of the crowd

As we cheered the dawning

(Aaah aaah. etc)

And I want to save it

Somewhere safe

So I’ll remember

Bring it out one day

When everything looks grey

To make me smile

When I’m feeling tender

All day

Replay

The rush of life

Makes a memory distant

And we climbed a hill top

Following a new friend

In the sun of the early morning

(Ahh ahh…)

Do you ever think that

This is now I must remember?

You take in all around you

Colours, taste and smell

Before it fades like a dying ember

All day

Replay

The rush of life

Makes a memory distant

I had coffee with rum

Sang along with the drums

Of the crowd

As we cheered the dawning

I remember long ago

Certain things were simple pleasures…
