I Remember
I remember looking into your eyes,
Choking on the word "Goodbye".
So I think about the better days.
I think back on all the ways
We used to get in trouble and
The things we did to cause it. Then
I remember looking into your eyes,
Choking on the word "Goodbye".
I stop and take a second.
I take a deep breath and try to forget it.
So I turn the radio on,
And the first thing I hear is our song.
I remember looking into your eyes,
Choking on the word "Goodbye".
I realize smiling tonight is hopeless,
So I lay in bed and let my tears drown this.
