Down by the river, a robin sat

Reminding me it's almost spring again

A weak ray of sunshine piercing through the snow

Burning your image on my brain

Memories like icicles, they're melting in the sun

I don't want you to fade from me just yet

I wrap myself in thoughts of you, but I can't defy the cold

Who would have thought you're so hard to forget

They say that when robins appear, loved ones are near

So where are you now?

Now every night in my dreams

I run down to that river

Hoping for some kind of sign

But it's dark and there is no moon

Just silence telling me that you were

Never truly mine

Memories like icicles, they've melded with the sun

But I don't want to fade from you just yet

Can the ugly image you have of me be beautiful one last time

'Cause it hurts that I'm so easy to forget

But I guess that there is not much point

For that robin to appear as you were

Never really here
