As for the time we lost 
and as for the words 
i fear i never said enough 
i watched as the night moved fast 
and years simply changed 
and endings let a calm begin 
 
try to remember this 
as your mind races away 
try to remember this 
we were taught to be amazed 
and now we're on our own 
 
come with me, and carry on 
i always hoped we'd grow this strong 
to find a place, to stop and be alone 
 
looking out on the park, last night 
the snow in the street lamps 
fell for hours but left no trace 
i turned down the lights 
i turned down the blinds 
and waited as i tried to sleep 
 
try to remember this 
when your world soon comes undone 
try to remember this 
with each setting of the sun 
we forget some things we own 
we forget some things we own 
 
come with me, and carry on 
we'll drive an hour just north of town 
where you and i can stop and be alone 
where you can i can stop 
 
i opened the letter 
you left on the table 
"please come to find me, when you're able" 
 
remember this 
as your mind races away 
try to remember this 
we were always so amazed 
remember this 
when your world soon comes undone 
try to remember this 
with each setting of the sun 
 
we forget some things we own 
we forget some things we own 
 
remember this 
remember this 
remember this 
 
we forget some things we own 
we forget some things we own
