LOVEFOOL Aka - LEST WE FORGET

I was away
A weak fool of a man
Disillusioned
I was cold and alone
I forgot about you

I couldn’t see
The harsh flood of life diminished my view
We drifted apart
Set sail on a voyage to nothingness
Floating on the tide of apathy
Slowly sinking in a sea of denial
We were both drowning in loneliness
I forgot to look for you

I thought I saw a lighthouse
But she was just a ship wrecker
A grasping collector
Casting her net on the cruel sea of love
I was awash with desire
Flaunting my madness for all to see
I forgot about us

I heard the song of the siren
She called, she called
Drawing me to danger
I rushed, I rushed
Oblivious to the warning signs
I hit the rocks
Tossed helpless by torrents of rage and regret
Bruised, battered but not quite broken
I saw a beacon
I remembered you

I remember now
I remember
When life was a stroll on the beach
Hand in hand

LOVEFOOL Aka
