I know so many things to forget
I cannot though I know what I can do
Before I forget I can not regret
Remember embers and let them die
My troubles flying upward to the sky
These sparks of my darkness may they flee
To disappear through the deep velvet blue
To be gone if not forgotten yet
To begone and be gone as l go on
Until fall when all my leaves will be gone
Then when a new diamond you see
Through the deep velvet blue that will be me
Taking a chance and making it there
Forgetting yet remembering to be
Love will remember me better than
I did and bids me forget if I can
But until I do I can not regret
Who disappear through the deep velvet
Blue to do what I can and cannot too
There I will be until always where
Remembering who I am to forget
And made unafraid to get this far
I will shine on and become a star
