1. Can you remember, remember my name,

Dm

as I flow through your life,

a thousand oceans I have flown, oh,

A C A - G

and cold, cold spirits of ice,

A - G - A

all my life, I am the echo of your past.

2. I am returning, the echo of a point in time,

and distant faces shine,

   G

a thousand warriors I have known, oh,

A C A - G

and laughing as the spirits appear,

A                - G - A A    - F - C

all your life shadows of another day.

And if you hear me talking on the wind,

you've got to understand

we must remain perfect strangers.

            Dm G

touching more than you see, the voice of ages in your mind, oh,

A C A - G

is aching with the death of the night,

A - G - A     A  - F - C

precious life your tears are lost in falling rain.

you've got to understand

we must remain perfect strangers.
