Every now and then
We find a special friend
Who never lets us down
They played together all the time as kits. They were never apart.
Who understands it all
Reaches out each time you fall
He was always there for her. She was always there for him. Even if it wasn't obvious to everyone else in the world, it was true.
You're the best friend that I've found
Which was why she couldn't believe...
I know you can't stay
A part of you will never ever go away
Your heart will stay
She spends nights thinking of him. Missing him. Wishing he'd come back and say it had just been an epic magic trick.
I'll make a wish for you
And hope it will come true
That life would just be kind
To such a gentle mind
If you lose your way
Think back on yesterday
Remember me this way
Remember me this way
She remembers him, the last time she saw him. His easy grin, his loving, dark eyes. The way he held her through the night. The way she felt so safe in his embrace. His voice when he whispered in her ear: "Can I keep you?"
I don't need eyes to see
The love you bring to me
No matter where I go
And I know that you'll be there
First, she leaves the junkyard. Jumps on the train. Almost like she's searching for him. Almost like she'll never rest until he's home again. She doesn't see his shadow sitting there just beside her heart.
Forever more apart of time, you're everywhere
I'll always care
He watches her from above, a tear falling from his eye. Why won't she see? Why won't she hear?
I'll make a wish for you
And hope it will come true
That life would just be kind
To such a gentle mind
If you lose your way
Think back on yesterday
Remember me this way
Remember me this way
He sees himself beside her. Holding her again. Why won't she feel him there?
And I'll be right behind your shoulder watching you
I'll be standing by your side and all you do
And I won't ever leave
As long as you believe
You just believe
She turns around. She could have sworn she heard... She lets out a breath, and allows herself a grin. Her eyes overflow with tears as she finally sees him, hears him. He was never fully gone. "I love you, Exotica." "I miss you, Quaxo."
I'll make a wish for you
And hope it will come true
That life would just be kind
To such a gentle mind
If you lose your way
Think back on yesterday
Remember me this way
Remember me this way
Remember me
This way
