I REMEMBER THAT MORNING, SUCH A CLOUDY DAY,
YOU STOOD ON THE CORNER, I WAS MOVING AWAY,
TO SUNNY CALIFORNIA, WHERE I THOUGHT I WOULD STAY,
I GAVE YOU NO WARNING, I DIDN'T HESITATE.
YOUR EYES TRIED TO CAPTURE MY FATE.
WE PLAYED WHEN WE WERE YOUNGER, IN A CLUMSY WAY.
I WAS SO AFRAID OF. WHAT I WANTED TO SAY.
WHY DIDN'T WE TALK WHEN. WE HAD THE CHANCE?
A HANDFULL OF YEARS SPENT IN. OUR YOUTHFUL TRANCE.
GOLDEN DREAMS CAPTURED MY FATE.
I USED TO MEET YOU HALFWAY UP THE HILL,
UNDER THE PEAR TREE, I CAN SEE US STILL.
RASCALS ON A GO-CART WE COULDN'T STOP,
HALFWAY UP THE HILL, WE NEVER MADE IT TO THE TOP,
HALFWAY UP THE HILL, WE KNEW WHAT WE COULD FIND.
HALFWAY UP THE HILL, WE BLEW EACH OTHER'S MIND.
HALFWAY UP THE HILL, WE WERE DEAF, DUMB AND BLIND,
THAT ONE OF US WOULD LEAVE THE OTHER ONE BEHIND.
I REMEMBER YOUR BROTHER, SAVED ME ONE DAY.
I SWAM OUT TO REACH YOU, IT WAS PART OF THE PLAY.
THE WATER GOT DEEPER, I WAS SINKING DOWN.
HE PULLED ME TO SAFETY, I WAS SUCH A CLOWN.
HIS HANDS HAD SPARED ME MY FATE.
TWO FRIENDS TOGETHER, DAY AFTER DAY,
ALL THE ODDS AGAINST US, BUT PEOPLE FADE AWAY.
AND EVEN THOUGH IT'S PAINFUL, I'LL OWN IT JUST THE SAME.
JUST SO I'LL HAVE SOMETHING RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS.
YOUR MEMORY IS PART OF MY FATE.
