​​
(Between the fields) A shoebox chapel standing alone
(Against the years) Valiant it holds for someone
(What do you see?) Daybreak bells sing sorrowing chimes
(What do you see?) But we have outgrown our lullabies
​
What’s it matter to you, if I’m part of the scene (I wish I could remember)
Once I’ve loved and I’ve lost, then I’ll get up to leave (I wish I could remember)
​
(Lost in the fog) Spots of still dust hanging in light
(Take hold my hand) Though you’ve been here for many a night
(Why couldn’t you) Is that your old fear on the stair?
(Be some-one else?) How could it have come to be there?
​
What’s it matter to you, if I’m part of the scene (I wish I could remember)
Once I’ve loved and I’ve lost, then I’ll get up to leave (I wish I could remember)
​
What’s it matter to you, if I’m part of the scene (I wish I could remember)
Once I’ve loved and I’ve lost, then I’ll get up to leave (I wish I could remember)
But if I could go back, if it’s all just a dream (I wish I could remember)
If not fashioned by flame, then what else would I be? (I wish I could remember)
