(continues with the band):
Can you remember, remember my name as I flow through
your life a thousand oceans I have flown ooh and
| |riff_1 | |riff_1 |
cold, cold spirits of ice.
| |riff_1 | | |
All my life I am the echo of your past
I am returning, the echo of a point in time, distant faces
shine a thousand warriors I have known and
| |riff_1 | |riff_1 |
laughing as the spirits appear
| |riff_1 | | |
all your life shadows of another day
and if you hear me talking
on the wind you've got to understand we must re-
-main perfect strangers

I know I must remain inside this silent well of
sorrow
A strand of silver hanging through the sky touching more than you
see the voice of ages in your mind oooh, is
| |riff_1 | |riff_1 |
aching with the death of the night o - oooh -
| |riff_1 | | |
-aww precious life your tears are lost in falling rain
and if you hear me talking
on the wind you've got to understand we must re-
-main perfect strangers

Well the 9/4 parts gave me a bit of a headace, so I chose to put a 5/4
measure there and keep the rest 4/4's. The accents in there come mostly
at the 2nd half of each 1/4. (As one-AND-two-AND...)
What to play on - riff_1: Basically it's just A5/Am through, but I noticed
that it's easier to keep track of where you are, if you count the riffs
especially, when you are singing. :)
