I Remember
Echoes of Love: REMEMBER, Reflecting on Moments Lost
Lyrics
I remember when we first met
Recollection of the initial encounter
Had that look right in your eyes
Noticing a certain expression in your gaze
I remember how you held me
Memories of your embrace
Through those endless summer nights
Together during seemingly endless summer nights
It was us against the world baby
A sense of unity against all odds
Everything it felt so right
Everything feeling perfectly aligned
Now I’m staring at the ceiling
Reflecting on solitude, missing your presence
Wishing you were by my side
Longing for your company
I remember how you told me that you care, don’t you care?
Recalling your assurances of care
How you gave me all the answers to my prayers, to my prayers
Your support felt like an answer to prayers
But I forgot about the ways that I needed you to change
Forgetting the need for your change
I forgot it doesn’t always go my way
Forgetting that things don't always go as desired
I remember
A general recollection
I remember, don’t you?
Asking if you remember too
I remember
Reiteration of remembering
I remember when you first left
Recollection of your departure
Heavy look right in your eyes
Similar intense look in your eyes during departure
We were barely even breathing
A state of almost breathlessness
You were holding on so tight
Your firm grip during departure
Now I’m fucking with the feeling again
Dealing with emotional turmoil again
Trying to get you off my mind, my mind
Struggling to stop thinking about you
Still I’m staring at the ceiling
Still longing for your presence
Wishing you were by my side
Yearning for your closeness
I remember how you told me that you care, don’t you care?
Recollection of your assurances of care (repeated)
How you gave me all the answers to my prayers, to my prayers
Feeling like you answered prayers (repeated)
But I forgot about the ways that I needed you to change
Forgetting the necessary changes from you (repeated)
I forgot it doesn’t always go my way
Forgetting that desires don't always align with reality (repeated)
I remember
A repetition of memory recall
I remember, don’t you?
A questioning of shared memories
I remember
Another repetition emphasizing remembrance
I remember
Continued emphasis on recollection
