Remind Me Why I Care

Sometimes I catch the wind
Playing with her hair
The wind it lets her go again
Remind me why I care

Sometimes I see animal faces
In the wood grain patterns there
They wink at me then they disappear
Remind me why I care

Remind me why I care
What’s happening over there
Everything is getting blurry
The longer that I stare

They’re begging for attention
And tapping shoulders everywhere
But when you turn to look you find
There’s always no one there

It’s a plain as day admission
It’s a ticket at a fair
And my suspicion is this game is rigged
Remind me why I care

They write the bad news daily
The innocent are seldom spared
The black and white type
Never wrote a red line
To remind me why I care

My love she whispers softly
Like the gentle summer air
And the words she keeps on repeating to me
Remind me why I care

Remind me why I care
Remind me
