I threw old pictures away
I cleaned out my closet
I listened to music sway
from a long dead poet
I found a letter I burned
but I kept the ashes
a government seal
still remains
amongst charred withered pages
and it's hard to remember why
in an envelope kept inside
of a jacket you gave me
you side I'd look good in
the winter time
I drink my coffee
I turn on the news
the ticker screams of a war
we would win
bur we would surely lose
I turned over tables
like Christ in the temple
and I let your purple heart
fall like the victim
and it's hard to remember why
with a war raging deep inside
of a jacket you gave me
you side I'd look good in
the winter time
and I missed you
like a bullet misses a target
and kills someone else in the way
and as I lay sleeping I pray for the nightmare
that haunts my thoughts each day
where I can feel your body with me
but I know I must be dreaming
I wake without you baby and it's hard
not to be screamin'
and it's hard to remember why
and it's hard to remember her
but still I remember
love
