Kathy Mar Remembrance Lyrics

Remembrance Lyrics

We gather in a quiet room



To sing our hopeful tunes



And all of us have something to be sharing



We speak the stars or summon tears



Or make each other smile



And every song shows signs of someone's caring



We wander through each others worlds



And trades desires and dreams



And show each other stars to wish upon 



And then by ones and twos



We slip away off to our beds



Yet something magic happens near the dawn







Chrous: Just the few who have lasted



	Till the day begins again



	Turn to family and friends



	With a soft "remember when..."



	And I talk about the flower years



	That made me what I am



	And all of you



	Share your remembrance too







Verse: A D G A A D E A

Chrous: D G A D D G A D







One woman shares her grieving



For the loved ones she has lost



And shyly speaks of her new special someone



A gentle man can talk about



A father who has died



And how someday he hopes he can become one



And all the quiet listeners



Who have no songs to share



Will offer you the moments of their lives



Like jewels that are priceless



They will give you all their fears



And gems of all the courage that survives







It's so hard when sleep is calling



To remain for one more song



And the memories that always follow after



And I've often slipped away myself



Before those early hours



And missed out on the sharing and the laughter



But one thought can console me



As I wander to my bed



So long before the singing circle ends



I know I'll try again and maybe



Last until the dawn



When the crowd becomes the faces of my friends
