"Remember Me" from Zee

To the living, I am gone, To the sorrowful, I will never return, To the angry, I was cheated, But to the happy, I am at peace, And to the faithful, I have never left.  I cannot speak but I can listen.  I cannot be seen, but I can be heard.  So, as you stand upon a shore gazing at a beautiful see, As you look upon a flower and admire its simplicity, Remember me.  Remember me in you heart: Your thoughts, and your memories, Of the times we loved, The times we cried, The times we fought, The times we laughed.  For if you always think of me, I will never have gone.
