Perfect Memory [I'll Remember You] lyrics

Remember how they always seemed to know

We had the forest in our eyes but the earth was in our clothes

They thought we'd fall

Not at all

So look back on your treasured days

When we were young in a world that was so tired

Though it's not what we wanted before

Even the saints had to crawl from the floor

Summers when the money was gone you'd sing

All your little songs that meant everything to me

And I'll remember you

And the things that we used to do

And the things that we used to say

I'll remember you

That way

Remember how they tried to hold you down

And we climbed those towers and looked out upon our town

And everything you hoped would last

It just always becomes your past

It hurts

But summers when the money was gone you'd sing

All your little songs that meant everything to me

And I'll remember you

And the things that we used to do

And the things that we used to say

I'll remember you

Always

But then how this world slipped through my fingers

And even the sun seemed tired

I still cared

As they lowered you down my heart just jaded

In that moment the earth made no sound

But you were there

You helped me lift my pain into the air

I still miss you

God I still miss you!

I know that you are waiting there

I always thought that you'd come home

And I'll remember you

And the things that we used to do

And the things that we used to say

If it don't hurt you, it won't hurt me

If it don't hurt me, it won't hurt you

If it don't hurt you, it won't hurt me that way
