Remember Oh, feel my heart, my treasure Rest with me, my love Oh, back and forth Remember I’ve known you all along "By water and the ancient codes we call down blessings Let him outlive us by a hundred years awash in grace, and wise, and free” Remember this peace, this breath, this quiet Oh, feel my heart, my treasure Rest with me, my love Back and forth God bless you Sweet dreams, my little one Remember
