Story behind the song
Sometimes…
I’m a ghost.
I was single for much longer than I ever wanted to be. In fact, I never did want to be… I dated many lovely women (just dated, not slept with!).
This song recalls those times when I see, or hear about, women who’d rejected me and then married very poorly. Our eyes meet, and I can see the regret – but can’t do anything to help them, not now.
You see, my life as a happily married man is well on the way.
And, at other times, I never see them anymore – and they can’t know how badly I feel for them – and I can’t tell them that I do, it wouldn’t be appropriate. But, I know they think of me sometimes, ruefully. My memory follows close behind them, haunting them… like a ghost. But, when they turn to see me…
I’m not there.
I’m not there.

Lyrics
Do You Remember Me?
by Alan Kim Cochran
Do you remember me?
'Heart upon my sleeve
Just look into my eyes
Always pleadingly
And, you'll never find me with you
And, you'll never know I care
I will follow close behind you
Turn around, I won't be there
I'm on my way
Yes, I'm on my way
Do you remember me?
Looking so lonely
A single man, in desperation
With nothing much to see
And, you'll never find me with you
And, you'll never know I care
I will follow close behind you
Turn around, I won't be there
I'm on my way
Yes, I'm on my way
Do you remember me?
'Heart upon my sleeve
Just look into my eyes, baby
Always pleadingly
And, you'll never find me with you
And, you'll never know I care
I will follow close behind you
Turn around, I won't be there
Turn around, I won't be there
Turn around, I won't be there
