I Will Remember You (Live Version)
Sarah McLachlan · Other Songs - Sarah McLachlan
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life
Pass you by
Weep not for
The memories
I'm so tired
But I can't sleep
Standing on the edge of something
Much too deep
It's funny how we feel so much
But can not say a word
Though we are screaming inside
Oh
But can't be heard
REPEAT CHORUS
I'm so afraid to love you
But more afraid to lose
I'm running from a past
That doesn't let me chose
Once there was a darkness
A deep and endless night
You gave me everything you had
Oh
You gave me life
REPEAT CHORUS (2x)
