Song Before I Leave

Tom Cochrane


Just a song before I leave 
A few words to believe in 
A touch we'll both remember in time 
Like a warm fire in December 
They'll remind us who is real 
And who is just passing by 
A small taste of what once was 
The sweet smell of some bright springtime 
CHORUS 
And i'll remember 
Sunflowers on your breast 
And i'll remember 
That halston that you'd wear the best 
And i'll remember your fatal touch 
And when it all becomes too much 
I'll pretend I don't care... 
I don't care...I don't care...anymore 
Did he come to comfort you? 
When you were feeling down 
And was he there to listen 
I listened but then I drowned in it 
Behind your silent seal 
Were nothing gets revealed 
And maybe your eyes can't fake 
What your heart no longer feels 
And I'll remember 
Sunflowers on your breast 
And I'll remember 
That halston that you'd wear the best 
And I'll remember your fatal touch 
When it all becomes too much 
I'll pretend I don't care... 
I don't care...I don't care... 
Maybe sometimes over distant lines 
When the words ring true to you 
Then you might see 
Ooooh maybe then sometimes 
When you know it's safe and clear 
Then you can think of me out here 
And remember the good times that we had 
CHORUS 
Just a song before I leave 
A few words to believe in 
A touch we'll both remember in time 
Like a warm fire in December
