(Verse)
Beer barrel floating down a winding river
Left there by a drunken Minuteman
Always reminds me of someone no longer here
A funny person who had ideas
That seemed kind of crazy and weird
But in there own way, their nonsense resonated in my ear
Beer barrel floating down a winding river
Down into the reaches of my mind

(Verse)
So far inside me I can hardly remember
A dream that only seems existеd then
How some kind of scent can takе you back the strongest
Long ago when everything was young
But even then as just a child
Like through a cold wind, could see a smirking sadness in your smile
Fading behind me, but you're not forgotten
Even when you’re furthest from my mind

(Chorus)
Oh no, I should have known
Don't leave me all alone
In this too sane reality, a vision still entrances me
Like a skewed notion that you can't replace
Or duplicate, cause it’s gone without a trace
It can't be, I got nothin' but memories of you, of you
(Outro)
Fading behind me, but you're not forgotten
Even when you're furthest from my mind
Even when you're furthest from my mind
Even when you're furthest from my mind
