Memory of a Life

Find a state and a meaning that you can justify
Behind a face inexpressive hidden from the light
Until a glance filled with longing from a lover's eyes
Recalls another time, another place

You feel it move towards you from outside your sight
A gentle weight held against you that seems to multiply
Demanding all your attention, it whispers in the night
Was it another time
Was it another place
Feels like a memory
Of the life we made

How long did you hold your dreams until they broke you
How long did you hold onto your sense of virtue
Was the lie so magnificent it forced you to believe
To keep alive that brittle feeling that there still could be relief
It was another time
It was another place
Maybe in our next lives
You'll recognize my face
