The Imperfection Of Memory

I can't hold onto you like I promised to Said I'd always remember But every day your face grows fainter Every day a little fainter You knew that this would happen didn't you When you stood and begged me To remember your existence You knew my memories would grow distant An unbearable sadness fills the gaps Left by details I can't get back I can't get back I never dreamt I'd be here failing you The imperfection of memory Now you're more of a ghost than ever - With your signal growing dimmer I thought I'd have no trouble doing What it was you were asking Didn't see the darkness coming Into which you're disappearing An unbearable sadness fills the gaps Left by details I can't get back I can't get back I'm failing but fighting to keep you I'm fighting but failing to keep you I'm failing but fighting to keep you I'm fighting but failing to keep you
