The Comedians

I sat there alone upon the Ferris wheel
A pastel colored carriage in the air
I thought you'd leave me dangling for a little while
A silly twist upon a childish dare
Below I saw you whispering to another man
Who held the lever that could bring me down
He'd stop the world from turning at your command
It's always something cruel that laughter drowns
And I'm up though the dawn is breaking
Even my heart is aching
I should be drinking a toast
To absent friends
Instead of these comedians
I can hardly hear the music from the carousel
The wind picks up, the carriage starts sway
As one by one the lights go out
It's closing time
I see you take his hand and walk away
Walk away
They say you're always be the last to know
They say that all that glitters is not gold
It's not just that you're never coming back to me
It's the bitter way that I was told
And I'm up though the dawn is breaking
Even my heart is aching
I should be drinking a toast
To absent friends
Instead of these comedians

I Remember You

I remember you
You're the one who made my dreams come true
A few kisses ago
I remember you
You're the one who said I love you too
Didn't 'ya know?
I remember, too, a distant bell
and stars that fell
Like the rain out of the blue
When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
the thrill of them all
Then I will tell them I remember you
I remember, too, a distant bell and stars that fell
Like the rain out of the blue
When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
the thrill of them all
Then I will tell them I remember,
tell them I remember
Tell them I remember you

I loved you the first time I saw you
But then our lives would change so very much
Through all these years I never stopped thinking of you
and wondering what could have been of us
Like would I have been happy if I'd had you
to grace my days and share my nights
Or is the darkness that's always been with me
an eternal truth of the night
Oh, how I loved you
and oh how I still love you
You're the sweetest thing I ever did know
Oh, how I needed you
and oh how I'll always need you
Though my need for you I never did make known
Too many people I know content themselves with
whatever harbor they drifted into
But I could never cast my anchor
until I found another love as sweet as you
Love born of the innocence of youth
may never again grace a wretch like me
Like a flame that's burned the length of its candle
Like a treasure that's been sunk into the sea
Oh, how I loved you
oh, how I still love you
You're the sweetest thing I ever did know
Oh, how I needed you
and oh how I'll always need you
though my need for you I was too shy to show
Oh, how I loved you
and oh how I'll always love you
A love for you I never did make known
Oh, how I need you
Oh how I'll always need you
My need for you just grows and grows and grows
My need for you just grows and grows and grows
I said my need for you just grows and grows and grows
