Stay as Sweet as You are

Stay as sweet as you are
when times get hard
on the ford of River Wey
and then you can hear
the songs we sang
once a long time ago.

We're gone now
distant and cold, on shingles
and broken glass
like the night we trod on them
drunk, fresh from the bar.

We no longer exist;
we're just you and me
and where you are
I won't know any more
but be you here
or there
remember to stay
as sweet as you were
so that I 
can remember you
like the way you were
the day we said goodbye.
