Thanks for listening and for your thoughts, Colin. Sorry to hear about your friend's loss. What are the odds? The line you refer to is actually in the chorus, where I alternate from a short line to long to short to long. It was on purpose, in an effort to introduce a little texture and variety, trying to keep from boring myself.  Also, there was just something about the phrase "forget to remember" that has been with me for a long time and I was finally able to utilize it in this song. That's not likely to change. Unresolved tension...kinda goes along with the song, and it does get resolved in the end, right? It's not so much that it would be a major revision to change as that I don't hear it as a bad thing. It took a lot of effort to stumble upon that chord progression totally by accident! Ricki
