No One Remembers
Some things you never forget,
some things just stick
like how about our first kiss?
And think back to when
we’d drive around on back roads
with nowhere to go
just your hand to hold
Oh, but now every thought of us is slipping like sand
Never knew lying and forgetting went hand-in-hand
How did you throw away
all the dreams that we made?
Just let them go to waste
We may have been young
but that's no excuse
to forget about the way
it was for me and you
Been so long, maybe my facts are wrong
but if I recall Tim McGraw sang our song
Think we used to say "I love you"
Or maybe I'm just a little bit confused
Didn't we carve our forever up in that tree?
Guess no one remembers but me
You might just think I'm plain crazy,
But my memory of you is the one thing that isn't fading
Been so long, maybe my facts are wrong
The past gets muddled so easily
When no one remembers but me
