That's How I Remember You
(Verse)
Sittin' on a front porch swing
When our love was still brand new
Listening to the whip-poor-wills
I remember me and you
Two lovers with a lifetime
Waiting 'round the bend
Oh what I'd give to just relive
Those memories again
(Chorus #1)
That's how I remember you, I remember me and you
Painted picture perfect like a rose and the morning dew
We watched love slip away I guess I should be blue
But I've still got these mem'ries and that's how I remember you
(Inst)
(Verse 2)
Years have not been kind it seems
For lovers long ago
Like ships lost on the ocean
Travellers on a lonely road
Love was never meant to be
It turned into dust
The sun touched the morning mist
And there was no more us
(Chorus #2)
Oh, I remember you, I remember me and you
Painted picture perfect like a rose and the morning dew
We watched love slip away in spite of all that we could d0
But I've still got these mem'ries and .. that's how I remember you
(Inst. Turnaround)
(Bridge)
They say that in the big scheme .. we are just a speck of dust
But I always believed .. there was more than that to us
(Chorus #3)
Oh, yes I remember you, I remember me and you
Painted picture perfect like a rose and the morning dew
We watched love slip away I guess I should be blue
But I've still got these mem'ries and that's how I remember you
TAG: That's how I remember you
