you'll forget me when I go (ozymandias) Lyrics

I met a traveller from from a land

So much older than this sand

Who saw a statue of a man

Everybody used to know

Now it's cracked and broken down

On the outskirts of my town

Time is the only show

You'll forget me when I go

You don't tell the wind to blow

You'll forget me when I go

Time is the only show

You'll forget me when I go

Order one more from the bar

And don't let it break your heart

We're all a speck between the stars

In a dark unknown

But I'll keep on keeping on

With my lover and my song

We'll get high, we'll get low

You'll forget me when I go

You don't tell the sun to glow

You'll forget me when I go

Won't happen fast, won't happen slow

You'll forget me when I go

Just to make it clear

I loved you now, I loved you here

And so when we should disappear

It doesn't mean we never glowed

Time is a loyal friend

And she'll be there 'till the end

Wherever our river bends

Her water still will flow

Oh how I love you so

You'll forget me when I go

Won't happen fast, won't happen slow

You'll forget me when I go
