Ill Remember You
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey/California
(v1)
As the sands of time slowly cover our yesterdays
Those that are remembered number a few
Though lifetimes fly by in a blink of an eye
As long as I can breathe, Ill remember you
(v2)
The winds will blow and conspire
Covering the things, we once held close
But to be remembered one must have an impact
And for me you had the most
(chorus)
You gave me wings and many other things
You steered me toward my tomorrows
You sacrificed for me and helped me to see
That life is full of joys and sorrows
And no matter the sands of time
You were and are a hero of mine
And no matter what I do
As long as I can breathe, Ill remember you
(v3)
When the skies grew dark, and I needed shelter
You provided a warm and secure place
You held fast there were no questions asked
You were my foundation my home base
(bridge)
Your gifts of wisdom have been passed on
And they also have served me well
In troubled times you stood behind me
My success only you could foretell
But its too premature for farewell
For I will always remember you
(chorus)
You gave me wings and many other things
You steered me toward my tomorrows
You sacrificed for me and helped me to see
That life is full of joys and sorrows
And no matter the sands of time
You were and are a hero of mine
And no matter what I do
As long as I can breathe, Ill remember you
