Lyrics
Drifting through a box of memories, forgotten photographs
I found a couple shots of you and me frozen in the past
In one you're listening to a sea shell you found along the beach
Sunlight playing in your hair
The sweetness in your eyes told me that love was within reach
Warm as the sunshine
So real I had to run
CHORUS:
Remember me
I was the fool who let you go
The fool who didn't know how good he had it
Remember me
I was afraind to let you in, but I loved you more back then than I admitted
When you think of what might have been...
Do you remember me?
Remember when we used to slip away, and hang down by the lake
I never will forget those shorts you wore, or moonlight on your face
Or the time I showed you how to drive the four speed in my truck
You wanted to peel out at every stop sign
My face was sore from laughing as we tore those back roads up
That kind of memory will never die
CHORUS:
Remember me
I was the fool who let you go
The fool who didn't know how good he had it
Remember me
I was afraind to let you in, but I loved you more back then than I admitted
When you think of what might have been...
Do you remember me?
I know sometimes life takes up separate ways
And we learn somehow to live with all the choices that we make
I thought maybe I'd come here today
To see if there's a chance I could correct my worst mistake
CHORUS
Remember me
I was the fool who let you go
The fool who didn't know how good he had it
Remember me
I was afraind to let you in, but I loved you more back then than I admitted
When you think of what might have been...
Do you remember me?
