Sometimes I like to write songs. Sometimes they are idea or thoughts or directly influenced by something I’m listening to or something in my every day life. I like writing songs that tell a story but I’m sometimes known to write songs that are just random thoughts and emotions. Here’s a song I wrote a few years back. The idea behind it was a what if this ever happened to me?
AMNESIA
I wake up in a hospital room
A man is sitting next to me
He’s crying and begging
For me to wake up
But I don’t know him...
He turns to look at me
His eyes spark so bright
He calls a name
I’m guessing it’s mine
But I don’t know
Cuz of amnesia amnesia
I don’t know you
Cuz of amnesia amnesia
I have lost myself
Cuz of amnesia amnesia
I have lost my love and I don’t know if I’ll ever remember
The doctor comes
He asks how I am and what’s my name
But I don’t know anything
They realize I have forgotten
And the man cries again
He says he’s my husband and I his wife
He tells me my name and his
But I just don’t remember anything
Cuz of amnesia amnesia
I don’t know you
Cuz of amnesia amnesia
I have lost myself
Cuz of amnesia amnesia
I have lost my love and I don’t know if I’ll ever remember
He takes me home and shows me pictures
Of ourselves looking so in love
I want to remember but I can’t
I just feel my heart hurting
I don’t know what’s wrong i don’t know what’s right
I just want to remember my lover
Cuz of amnesia amnesia
I don’t know you
Cuz of amnesia amnesia
I have lost myself
Cuz of amnesia amnesia
I have lost my love and I don’t know if I’ll ever remember
The doctors say
My memory will come back someday
And I hope they are right
Because I want to remember him
I feel I do love him
But I just can’t be sure without memories
I hate how this feels
This cursed amnesia tearing us apart
Cuz of amnesia amnesia
I don’t know you
Cuz of amnesia amnesia
I have lost myself
Cuz of amnesia amnesia
I have lost my love and I don’t know if I’ll ever remember
Last night I had a dream
I saw him drop on his knees and ask me to be his wife
And I woke up with tears on my eyes
Slowly the memories are coming back
And I know... everything will be ok
