Last night Beth asked how you're getting on
I said you're doing good
But some of you has left
And some of you is still here
I said it first just as a joke
But beneath all of the mirrors and smoke
Sometimes I think your memory is selective
It just seems beyond convenient
Which parts are disappearing when
The times you can't remember
I can't forget
Maybe that's a kindness though
A beauty in the growing old
That for some, our own memories forgive us
Well, it's all that I could wish for you
It's all that I could ever wish for you
That those memories just fade away
I reminded you just yesterday
That I have a daughter on the way
And your eyes lit up
And for a moment the clouds were lifted
I hope that when you meet her too
It's one of those days that stays with you
I hope she meets the person that I once knew
As she gets older, yeah, I'm sure
She'll ask about you more and more
And I'll tell her you were my best friend
I will let some of my memories slip away
It's all that I could wish for you
It's all that I could ever wish for you
It's all that I could wish for you
It's all that I could ever wish for you
That I could ever wish for you
That I could ever wish for you
That those memories just fade away
