remember me this way
dear friend:
i know that this is hard for you,
i know you're pretty sad
i hope you can still think about
the lovely times we had
the times you were supportive
the times you comforted me
the times i let the tears just show
and it was okay for you to see
so do not shed a tear for me,
do not cry today
read yourself this letter
and remember me this way.
remember when we met each other
back when we were small?
we did not have much to talk about
hardly anything, at all
but we were atracted to each other
we had a special connection
every day and every night
sharing our affection
we grew up, learnt about each other
i introduced my family
mother, sister, brother
those were so precious memories
those were the good old days
so do not cry for me, my friend
remember me this way
remember when we went through school?
things were pretty slow
but never did you leave my side
never did you go
you helped me pass my tests
you helped me every time
you helped me put my mind to rest
and you used to give me signs
that showed me what to write
and showed me what to do
you helped revise at night
and through the weekends, too
i know there could have been better things
to occupy your day
so when you think about those times,
remember me this way
remember when you sat with me
in my first job interview
you smiled at me and guided me
i knew just what to do
i got that job, you know my friend
remember i worked for a year?
till things they got, too out of hand
it started all the tears
things that got between us
was never quite the same
in sted of care free living
you were feeling all my pain
so when you read this letter, and think about that day
remember you did all you can to help
remember me this way
and so my friend, my time is up
my time has come to part
i hope i'll always be with you,
right there, in your heart
i know it's hard to say good bye
i know i really do
but don't think about the bad things
i wouldn't want you to
my friend thank you for everything
but i've got to do what's right
i'll send this letter sometime today
then i'll end it all tonight
1 more thing, before i go,
please remember who i am
and don't forget the times we had
yours sincerely
