Remember This

Remember This

I watched the sunrise
I couldn't sleep again
The tears that I cried
Lingering on my skin
It seems that all I can do
Is disappoint you
Why can't our love
Stay brand-new

Like
Holding hands
In the middle of the night
And waking up
To the morning light
To find that your kiss
Is still wet on my lips
I want you 
To remember this

Your touch isn't the same
You've grown so cold
The bed feels so empty
Without you to hold
We used to laugh
We used to play 
But you don't see me
In that loving way

Like
How you said
You thought I hung the moon
That you loved 
When I sang out of tune
Just watching me move
Could make your heart skip
I want you 
To remember this

What happened
To the love 
We once shared
Do you think deep inside
It's still there
Is it gone for good
Never to be found
Or are we going in circles
Around and around

Like 
Holding hands
In the middle of the night
And waking up
To the morning light
To find that your kiss 
Is still wet on my lips
I want us 
To remember this
