Suddenly you were gone from all the lives you left your mark upon.

how we talked and drank into the misty dawn. I hear the voices.
We ran by the water on the wet summer lawn. I see the footprints.
I remember...

the shouts of joy skiing fast through the woods. I hear the echoes.
I learned your love for life. I feel the way that you would. I feel your
presence. I remember...
