Rememb’ring you – Alice Altink

Rememb’ring you (gedeelte)

You were my six years so much younger little brother
Your gift for music went beyond recall
Your love for animals, our lovely crazy mother
As for young child’ren, well, you gave your all
Your luck in life was hard, you suffered like no other
You made our father’s wish and premonition true
Your mission blue

Rememb’ring you, your tender soul
When there was finally time to know you
Feel the love you had to show you had to go

Rememb’ring you, oooh, you gentle soul,
When I was ready to embrace you
Killercells came to erase you had to go

Oh, more than once my arms would long to hold you closely
Strengthen your heart for that mysterious quest to come
That damnest pride kept us apart till the finale
Although your jokes would sometimes make me hum
My arms still hurt from longing to embrace you
My lips still hurt for what I didn’t say
This was our way

Rememb’ring you, touches my soul
There’s still so much I would have told you
When I meet you in my sleep, your guitars weep

Rememb’ring you, ooh you gentle soul
When I was ready to enfold you
All the love I’m feeling for you had to go

Rememb’ring you, touches my soul
There’s still so much I would have told you
When I meet you in my sleep, your guitars weep

Rememb’ring you, ooh you gentle soul
When I was ready to enfold you
All the love I’m feeling for you had to go

I’m sure you know

I love you so
