Remember

When people rise up at the sound of birds, but all their songs grow faint
When the sun and light and moon and stars grow dark the hour is late
When people go to their eternal homes and mourners go about the streets
Remember

Before the silver chord is severed and desire stirs no more
When dust returns to the ground it came from
Remember
Remember

In the days of youth remember light is sweet
Follow the ways of your heart and what your eyes may see    X2

Remember!
The days of dark, for they’ll come!
And follow
The ways of these words, my son!

In the days of youth remember light is sweet
Follow the ways of your heart and what your eyes may see
