lyrics
Peter, don’t you know me?
You almost passed me by-
Peter, please remember
The way we used to fly
We danced upon the clouds it seemed
We soared above the sea
Peter, don’t you know me?
Please remember me
If you see me forgetting, just whisper your name
And I will remember you
If you see me forgetting, I’m sorry
I’ll try to remember you
I think that I remember
Our home within the wood
The forests all around us
I think that it was good?
The boys were living with us
We’d go swimming at the shore
I think that I remember
But I don’t know any more.
If I see you forgetting, I’ll whisper my name
So you can remember me
If I see you forgetting, it’s ok
I’ll help you remember me
(Both in alternating unison)
Peter, don’t you know me?
I think that I remember
You almost passed me by-
Our home within the wood
Peter, please remember
The forests all around us
The way we used to fly
I think that it was good?
We danced upon the clouds it seemed
The boys were living with us
We soared above the sea
We’d go swimming at the shore
Peter, don’t you know me?
I think that I remember
Please remember me
But I don’t know any more.
If you see me forgetting, just whisper your name
If I see you forgetting, I’ll whisper my name
And I will remember you
So you can remember me
If you see me forgetting, I’m sorry
If I see you forgetting, it’s ok- I’m Wendy
I’ll try to remember you
I’ll help you remember me
I’ll help you remember me...
