You Remain

What do you do with the sands of time

When they carve out lines around your eyes?

I can close my fist up good and tight

But I can't hold back the sands of time

What do you do with a memory

That just hangs around and stares at me?

I can tear that frame down off the wall

But it won't erase the things I saw

Night and day

Night and day

You remain

You remain

What do you do with old regrets?

There's a box full undernearth the bed

Just close enough not to forget

But what do you do with old regrets?

There's old house key in a kitchen drawer

To the door I can't unlock no more

Sometimes I hold that key real tight

But what do you do after goodbye

Night and day

Night and day

You remain

You remain

Night and day

Night and day

You remain

You remain
