He'd pick me up from school

With that smile on his face

And he'd always start his stories with "when I was your age"

He supported me through college

With the cash he hid away

And when I started writing songs, he asked me "what's her name?"

He said "Every artist needs a muse"

Then looked across the room

And said "The only thing that time can't change are the things that love will do"

Now he doesn't know my name

And he thinks that everyday's the first of June

And the faces in the frames

Are the memories that faded way too soon

You can see it on his face

That everything about the day is new

He won't remember why, or when, or what he's supposed to do

But he'll never forget Sue

He met her in the hallways

Of that high school up in Queens

He said "I'll love you always"

Didn't know what that would mean

They got married in the 20's

He still thinks he's twenty-three

She wakes up everyday in love with the man he used to be

And he starts coming to

When she walks in the room

Cause the only thing that time can't change is the things the love will do

Now he doesn't know my name

And he thinks that everyday's the first of June

And the faces in the frames

Are the memories that faded way too soon

You can see it on his face

That everything about the day is new

He won't remember why, or when, or what he's supposed to do

But he'll never forget

Her smile, her eyes

That keep him tailored to this life

Inside his mind

She's all that he can recognize

Now he doesn't know my name

And he thinks that everyday's the first of June

And the faces in the frames

Are the memories that faded way too soon

You can see it on his face

That everything about the day is new

He won't remember why, or when, or what he's supposed to do

But he'll never forget Sue
