Song Before I Leave - Tom Cochrane

Just a song before I leave

A few words to believe in

A touch we’ll both remember in time

Like a warm fire in December

They’ll remind us who is real

And who is just passing by

A small taste of what once was

The sweet smell of some bright springtime

And i’ll remember

Sunflowers on your breast

And i’ll remember

That halston that you’d wear the best

And i’ll remember your fatal touch

And when it all becomes too much

I’ll pretend I don’t care…

I don’t care… I don’t care… anymore

Did he come to comfort you?

When you were feeling down

And was he there to listen

I listened but then I drowned in it

Behind your silent seal

Were nothing gets revealed

And maybe your eyes can’t fake

What your heart no longer feels

And I’ll remember

Sunflowers on your breast

And I’ll remember

That halston that you’d wear the best

And I’ll remember your fatal touch

When it all becomes too much

I’ll pretend I don’t care…

I don’t care… I don’t care…

Maybe sometimes over distant lines

When the words ring true to you

Then you might see

Ooooh maybe then sometimes

When you know it’s safe and clear

Then you can think of me out here

And remember the good times that we had

Just a song before I leave

A few words to believe in

A touch we’ll both remember in time

Like a warm fire in December
