All I Remember

All I remember if gathered together would be

Solitary firework flashes over a fathomless sea

I tried to recall all the treasures I found in those days

But the connection is weak and the moment is lost in the haze

Feeling new feelings, Ketty Lester, Dee Clark, Bobby Vee

Walking the dyke in the dark, where the river turns into the sea

Flickers in windows with forty-watt bulbs and TV

A flurry of gnats in a meadow, sunset, 1963

[Instrumental Break]

Try to rеmember the trеasures we found in those days

In retrospect, tiny as diamonds, stars in the black heart of space

(All aboard)

All I remember if gathered together would be

Just solitary firework flashes over a fathomless sea
