Now I Must Remember

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.....
