---

I walked out the door with you, I didn't know
That I was leaving myself and all my dreams behind too
And the shepherd boy died along with the sheep that night
I still remember, what that boy was like

Oh, What happened to his smile, And his wide-eyed gaze?
Maybe lost on the road or in the dark along the Ways,
After battles in the sky and too many scars to name
He's just a memory of those innocent days

And I know he's long gone and I can't be that boy no more,
I tried to hold on but I can't see the Light

'Cause there we are again in the woods that night,
A child born on a mountainside, in snow of red and white,
I was scared, you were there
I remember it all too well

Dragon banner on the ground, and your words stuck in my head
You knew long before I did that your friend was dead
A boy in Lord's clothing, I tried to be brave
And we flickered through a thousand worlds that I failed to save

I fell from the sky, and I know that I'm falling still
If run from all this long enough, I'll die when I'm needed to

'Cause there we are again in those halls of stone,
I tried to make her heart beat but her skin was growing cold
Blood again, on my hands
I remember it all too well, yeah

Maybe I got lost in that doorway
Maybe I asked for too much
Trying to live through the end of this is a dream I gave up,
Crowned with swords, Rand al’Thor
I remember him all too well

Yeah you locked me in the dark
Where I broke just like your promise
No lie so cruel as when an Aes Sedai is honest
Then I shattered like ravens on a battlefield
And he remembers it all too well

Time goes by, and you're not ready yet
To see who I was is gone, so you're still trying to find him
After nightmares and waking dreams no longer my own,
Now I look for the end, and I'm never alone

You think of that boy, and those sun bright days
But I'm a king in sheep's clothing, and my mouth's full of names
I can't get rid of them
Cause I remember them all too well, yeah

Cause here we again; please just let me go
I've climbed this mountain, now we know I'll never come back down
Almost time, let me die,
We remember it all too well

I was scared, you were there, I remember it all,
Blood again, on my hands, he remembers it all,
Almost time, let me die
I remember it all too well
