Lyrics

Remember when you gave the toast
Remember when you saw the ghost
Remember when she kissed your mouth
Remember when he knocked you down
Remember when you said to me
Memory is like a boat at sea

The words “remember when” are like two best friends in any language
They mean you’ve been somewhere and done some things
And someone else was there to speak about it
And tell you more
And isn’t that the way you thrive
When someone else can keep alive your past?
Cuz memory
Is a boat at sea
And every day it sails away from me

Oooooh there’s no sign
Of the child anymore
Places and faces in mind
I can’t find anymore
But sometimes you feel a trace
No it’s not all left behind
You find picture of a face, and so

Reminisce the times you miss
And hold them to the light
And stare in wonder
Remember when we
But those bitter nights you left behind
Might scream back into life and drag you under
To the other side
The darkness in your past
And how long the echoes last
You’ll never know
But memory
Is a boat at sea
And every day it sails away with grief

Oooooh
Aaaaaah
Even with all the pain
Those better times and brighter days
Are mostly what remain, so

“Remember when” are your two best friends in any language
Remember when we
They mean you’ve been somewhere and done some things
And someone else was there to laugh about it
Even when you are gone
And isn’t that the way you live
Beyond your years if someone gives your name?
Remember me
When your memory
Is a boat at sea

Oooh…remember
Remember when we…
Oooh…remember
Remember when we…
Oooh…remember
Remember when we…
Oooh…remember
