The Song Remembers When Lyrics

The Song Remembers When lyrics

I was standing at the counter 
I was waiting for the change 
When I heard that old familiar music start 
It was like a lighted match had been tossed into my soul 
It was like a dam had broken in my heart 
After taking every detour 
Gettin' lost and losin track 
So that even if I wanted I could not find my way back 
After driving out the memory 
Of the way things might have been 
After I'd forgotten all about us 
The song remembers when 

We were rolling through the Rocky's 
We were up above the clouds 
When a station out of Jackson played that song 
And it seemed to fit the moment 
And the moment seemed to freeze 
When we turned the music up and sang along 
And there was a God in Heaven 
And the world made perfect sense 
We were young and were in love 
And we were easy to convince 
We were headed straight for Eden 
 
It was just around the bend 
And though I have forgotten all about it 
The song remembers when 

I guess something must have happened 
And we must have said goodbye 
And my heart must have been broken 
Though I can't recall just why 
The song remembers when 

Well, for all the miles between us 
And for all the time that's past 
You would think I haven't gotten very far 
And I hope my hasty heart 
Will forgive me just this once 
If I stop to wonder how on earth you are 

But that's just a lot of water 
Underneath a bridge I burned 
And there's no use in backtracking 
Around corners I have turned 
Still I guess some things we bury 
Are just bound to rise again 
Yeah, and even if the whole world has forgotten 
The song remembers when
