Текст песни Zack Hemsey - Remember Me

Текст:

Song Concept: Inspired by the photographic work of the same name, this song chronicles the struggle of a woman who is diagnosed with liver cancer. As she fights to hang on to her family for as long as possible, her husband and children do their best to keep their spirits up and cherish the remaining moments they all have with each other.
