I WAS HERE

  
While the sun is sinking down 
I'm gonna try not
to fall in the water
edging this town
I'm standing here
at the end of a lonely pier
where ships don't dock no more my dear
trying not to disappear

Trail my finger along the wood
Ain't nobody standing right there
where you once stood
Last time the setting sun
sat at your back
now that board's got a great big crack
where you gone, no one comes back
well, I'm coming soon so just relax
I'm standing here
at the end of a lonely pier
where ships don't dock no more my dear
trying not to disappear
now who'll remember I was here?
will you remember I stood here?
