Rush – Afterimage Lyrics

Rock

Suddenly --
You were gone
From all the lives
You left your mark upon

I remember --
How we talked and drank
Into the misty dawn
-- I hear the voices

We ran by the water
On the wet summer lawn
-- I see the foot prints
I remember --

-- I feel the way you would
-- I feel the way you would
-- I feel, I feel the way you would

Tried to believe
But you know it's no good
This is something
That just can't be understood

I remember --
The shouts of joy
Skiing fast through the woods
-- I hear the echoes

I learned your love for life
I feel the way that you would
-- I feel your presence
I remember --

I feel the way you would
I feel the way you would
I feel, I feel the way you would
This just can't be understood...

I tried to believe
But you know it's no good
This is something
That just can't be understood

I remember --
I feel the way you would
I feel the way you would
I feel, I feel the way you would
This just can't be understood...

    this song was Not written for his wife nor daughter. !st, it was written in the early 80's, when Grace Under Pressure came out. 2nd only his daughter was killed in a car accident. His wife died later of cancer, not quite a year after their daughter. This song was written for their long time friend and producer Terry Brown, whose death inspired Neil to write these lyrics....and what a great song to listen to after losing a close friend or relative.
