Keep Your Mind On Me

I seemed to have to slipped
I remember the cold ground and your eyes
And then nothing more

I feel like a fish
Who's been swimming for so long
Only to spawn upon the river's floor

So I know that I am gone
And there's nothing left to carry on
But if you could, my darling
Would you keep your mind on me

I will watch from someplace above
Where I'll get to see the beauty you become
And while I do, I'd like it if you could
Keep your mind on me

For you, my love was like blood
That easy, pulsing thing
Unrelenting in it's quiet course through our veins

Ever since the slip and the thud
All I remember are the small days of pure content
That life seems to love to drive away

Yes, I know that I am gone
And I'm no longer there to lean upon
If only you knew, I'm still here with you
If you keep your mind on me

I will watch you while you bloom
And hope you don't join me up here soon
While you're down there I hope you can bear
To keep your mind on me

Those mindless, lovely days will not come back
I cannot recall the day you stopped being small enough to hold
I'd do anything to backtrack
But I can't
So my mind will be with you
'Till the day you've grown old

Yes I know I am gone
And I'm sure I did some things wrong
But if you could, my darling
would you keep your mind on me

I will watch from way up high
In hopes that one day I'll catch your eye
But until then I hope you can
Keep your mind on me
