Mark Westin: See Hear!

I see the picture of all of us standing in the garden
It was warm it was June we were standing by a fountain
I remember how it smelled like the grass and like the river
I remember how we laughed as we smiled for the camera

We were looking in the lens except for him he was looking away
I wonder if he knew that he was gonna die that day

I see the night feel the sweat that was pouring off my shoulders
It was loud it was hot there were people packed together
Heard the squeals and the screams felt the power in the motion
Looked around at us all we were breathing it together

And I watched him in a darkened silhouette as he continued to play
I wonder if he knew that he was gonna die that day

All the things we meant to say
All the things we meant to share
I guess he knows them all now
I guess he probably doesn’t care

We sat in back in the van never saying much of nothing
It was late it was dark we were closer to exhaustion
There were times when I thought just to make some conversation
Then I felt his fatigue it could wait until tomorrow

And I wonder if I knew what I know now what I’d have chosen to say
And I wonder how it feels to be the one who’s gonna die that day

And I wonder if I knew what I know now what I’d have chosen to say
And I wonder how it feels to be the one
