Lyrics

Memory's a funny part of the brain

Memory is a complex aspect of the brain.

A fuzzy little film that is hard to explain

Describing memory as a fuzzy film that is difficult to articulate.

I remember this, you remember that

Recalling events from the past.

If we put our heads together, can we fill in the gaps

Suggesting collaboration to remember shared experiences.

I hope you've been okay

Expressing concern for someone's well-being.

Kinda funny when we fell in the lake

Reflecting on a humorous incident of falling into a lake.

I can't remember your name

Unable to recall a specific person's name.

But with that face, what's in a name?

Questioning the significance of a name when the face is memorable.

A moment in indelible ink

Highlighting a memorable moment with permanent impact.

Clothes all wet as you're pulled from the drink

Describing a situation with wet clothes and a rescue from water.

I can remember face, oh what's her name

Remembering a face but struggling with the name.

What's in a name?

Raising the question again about the significance of a name.

Sometimes you're so clear

Noting instances when memories are vivid and clear.

A lens zooming in at the fall of a tear

Comparing a clear memory to a zoomed-in lens capturing a tear.

I remember this, you remember that

Repetition of the theme of shared memories.

If we glue our heads together, can we fill in the gaps?

Proposing unity in remembering shared experiences.

I hope you've been okay

Reiterating concern for the other person's well-being.

Kind of funny when we fell in the lake

Recalling the humorous incident of falling into a lake.

I can't remember your name

Again, struggling to remember a specific person's name.

But with that face, what's in a name?

Raising the question of the significance of a name when the face is memorable.

A moment in indelible ink

Reemphasizing a memorable moment with lasting impact.

Clothes all wet as you're pulled from the drink

Describing a situation with wet clothes and rescue from water.

I can remember her face, what's her name

Revisiting the challenge of remembering a specific person's name.

What's in a name

Persistently questioning the significance of a name.

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Repeating vocalizations (ooh) to convey emotion or emphasis.

A moment in indelible ink

Reiterating a memorable moment with lasting impact.

Clothes all wet as you're pulled from the drink

Revisiting a situation with wet clothes and rescue from water.

I can remember her face, oh what's her name?

Repeating the challenge of remembering a specific person's name.

What's in a name

Persistently questioning the significance of a name with vocalizations (ooh).

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Concluding with repeated vocalizations (ooh).
