And As For You

The Oysterband
And as for you,
where were you when I needed you?
You just look at me like you see
but you can't recall
I could name the day I heard you say "Remember me "”
I'll be there for you, I swear, if you ever fall"
Time goes out of mind
Who gets left behind?
Should I call you brother now?
These razor suits that you wear,
your calculated air
The worried smile of a man reinvented
No more words now for you like 'forever'
You said 'forever'
but that was never what you'd want
Time goes out of mind
Who gets left behind?
Should I call you brother now?
Time goes out of mind
Was I running blind?
Should I call you brother now?
And when I fell, the way we do
I reached for hands to pull me through
I had a friend on whom I thought
I could depend "” but where were you?
Time goes out of mind
Who gets left behind?
Brother, should I call you brother now?
Time goes out of mind...
