do you remember

the day you said goodbye to me at the airport in san francisco
i knew it would be the last time
the last time you'd be mine

do you remember the tales i told you
the stars i showed you
and how i already loved you
the first time we met

each moment after that we shared
the magic in bed as we watched sunrises and sunsets
borrowed time i'll never forget

do you remember the owls howling when we fell in love in that tree
that tree that set me free
now on fire burning in my memory
or do you remember that day when you told me
i was a mysterious carcajou
when it was just the two of us
surrounded by the red of your room

two wild beasts roaming the wilderness of our dreams
never again to see what our lives could have been
if you hadn't left.
