Richard Shindell - Memory Of You

It’s uncanny 


It’s something strange 


It’s something I have 


Long tried to ignore 


Behind the curtain 


Behind the door 


If I keep my eyes cast down 


It just might go away 





It’s got no name 


It’s got no shape 


It can’t be photographed 


And it lives in no one place 


It’s got no shame 


And it knows no grace 


And it’s got two long arms 


Reaching out for me 





I hit the light 


I’ll take my stand 


Let’s have your best 


Show your hand 


The shadows run 


And I see true 


It’s just the memory of you 





So what’s your pleasure 


My phantom friend 


What thing could bring you out 


To haunt this world again 


Some sweet revenge? 


Some dread command? 


Or do you only need 


Someone to hold your hand? 





Why did you leave 


Your will so vague? 


Just three blue lines 


Across the page: 


You take the vase 


I’ll keep the rose 


And the memory of you
