I Remember Songtext
von Eleri Ward

I remember sky
It was blue as ink
Or at least I think
I remember sky
I remember snow
Soft as feathers, sharp as thumbtacks
Coming down like wind
And it made you squint
When the wind would blow


And ice like vinyl on the streets
Cold as silver, white as sheets
Rain like strings
And changing things like leaves
I remember leaves
Green as spearmint, crisp as paper
I remember trees
Bare as coat racks, spread like broken umbrellas

And parks and bridges, ponds and zoos
Ruddy faces, muddy shoes
Light and noise and bees and boys and days

I remember days
Or at least I try
But as years go by
They′re a sort of haze
And the bluest ink
Isn't really sky
And at times I think
I would gladly die

For a day of sky
