Like I remember you?

I was there to tell you the truth

There's someone somewhere that will love you
Encouraging hope by stating that someone, somewhere, will love the other person.
I remember in the passenger seat When you leaned into me

And said
Introducing a statement made by the other person during the mentioned moment.
I remember what it means
Remembering the significance of the statement and its meaning.
You can have me anyway you want me

Let's think rational

If you'd seen what I saw then maybe You'd still have your skin

Then in a flash we all
Reflecting on the rapid passage of time and the tendency to reevaluate past mistakes.
Think back on every flaw and wonder Just what could've been
Expressing contemplation about the consequences of past flaws and the uncertainty of what could have been.
