Don'T Forget That We Were Happy

Don't forget that we were running in the rain.
I know sometimes there's pain.
Don't forget how we laughed 
And how we danced.
Things weren't always where they've pranced.
Don't forget that we were happy 
Don't forget how we baked
And ate and were happy
Don't forget the how we love each other
How we were in our own world 
Don't forget all the places we traveled to
All the ruins we walked on an learned
And how the sun did burn
Don't forget all the foods
We tasted and made
And lemon-mangoade
Don't forget our fancy breads
And our spa nights, me rubbing your head
When the remains of the day offer darkness
  claim the morning and lunch
And planted flowers by the bunches
And remember the many happy times, blue ice cream lines 
And please don't forget that we were happy.
