Aldon looked towards the moon that glowing bright in the night. Shaylee walked over to her brother and sighed deeply. "What will you say to father when we find him?," she asked gently. Aldon sighed and turned towards his sister and looked down at her sadly. "I will tell him the truth," he explained, "But father will be the one to convince mother to sail even if it means he will never see her again," And Shaylee sighed and looked down. "All that we have done, all that they have done, will only be faded memories," she sighed, "But their story will become a legend, I am sure of that," And Aldon turned to her and smiled weakly. "You're right," he said softly and Shaylee gently squeezed her brother's shoulder. Aldon sighed and softly started to sing,

[Verse 1: Aldon]
We'll tell all their friends
Tell them they're never coming back
'Cause this is their end
Pretend that you want it, don't feel grief
The damage is done
The end is coming too fast now
They would have died
They would have loved each other
For eternity

[Chorus: Aldon]
They're losing their memory now
They're losing their memory now
They're losing their memory now
They're losing their memory... now

[Verse 2: Shaylee]
Where have they gone?
This world is so empty without their love here
And where have we gone?
We wake in our empty chambers with them near
Remember their day
'Cause is what love should always we be
They just want to stay
They just want to keep their love in their lives
As we keep their dream in us

[Chorus: Both]
They're losing their memory now
They're losing their memory now
They're losing their memory now
They're losing their memory... now

[Bridge: Both, Shaylee, Aldon]
Wake up, it's time, father, wake up
All the best of what you've done is yet to come
Wake up, it's time mother
Can't you see that your time has come?
Wake up, it's time, father
Just remember who we are in the morning!

[Chorus: Both]
They're losing their memory now
They're losing their memory now
They're losing their memory now
They're losing their memory

[Outro: Both, Aldon, Shaylee]
They're losing their memory now
They're losing their memory now
They're losing their memory now
They're losing their memory
Wake up, it's time, father, wake up
All the best of what you've done is yet to come
Wake up, it's time mother
Can't you see that your time has come?
They're losing their memory... now

Aldon and Shaylee stared up towards the moon and sighed. Shaylee hugged her brother tightly. "Their time has come," Aldon whispered sadly.
