C               G          F
please remember me, happily 
       C        G
by the rosebush laughing 
     C              G                F
with bruises on my chin, the time when 
             C              G
we counted every black car passing 
      Am                  G              F
your house beneath the hill, and up until 
         C                 G
someone caught us in the kitchen
      Am                G               F5
with maps, a mountain range, a piggy bank 
         C              G
a vision too removed to mention


But please remember me, fondly, 
i heard from someone you're still pretty 
and then they went on to say that the Pearly Gates 
have such eloquent graffiti 
like: “we'll meet again" and “fuck the Man" 
and “tell my mother not to worry" 
and angels with their great handshakes 
but always done in such a hurry 

and please remember me, at Halloween 
making fools of all the neighbors 
our faces painted white, by midnight 
we'd forgotten one another 
and when the morning came I was ashamed 
only now it seems so silly 
that season left the world and then returned 
and now you're lit up by the city 

so please remember me, mistakenly 
in the window of the tallest tower 
call, then pass us by, but much too high 
to see the empty road at happy hour 
gleam and resonate just like the gates 
around the Holy Kingdom 
with words like: “lost and found" and “don't look down" 
and “someone save temptation" 

and please remember me, as in the dream 
we had as rug-burned babies 
among the fallen trees and fast asleep 
beside the lions and the ladies 
that called you what you like and even might 
give a gift for your behavior: 
a fleeting chance to see a trapeze- 
swinger high as any savior 

and please remember me, my misery 
and how it lost me all i wanted 
those dogs that love the rain, and chasin' trains 
the colored birds above there runnin' 
in circles round the well, and where it spells 
on the wall behind St. Peter 
so bright on cinder gray in spray paint: 
“who the hell can see forever?" 

and please remember me, seldomly 
in the car behind the carnival 
my hand between your knees, you turn from me 
and said the trapeze act was wonderful 
but never meant to last, the clowns that passed 
saw me just come up with anger 
when it filled with circus dogs, the parking lot 
had an element of danger 

so please remember me, finally 
and all my uphill clawing 
my dear, but if i make the Pearly Gates 
i’ll do my best to make a drawing 
of God and Lucifer, a boy and girl 
an angel kissin’ on a sinner 
a monkey and a man, a marching band 
all around the frightened trapeze-swinger

nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah …
