Remember You

Lyrics

Remember You Words and Music by James Horning Sometimes I still miss you and I don?t know what to do I?m almost beside myself ?cause I still can?t hold you I?ve cried many days, many hours, I have cried so much I fear that to this world I?m livin? in, I?m outta touch I thought I would do fine I thought I would mend my ways Never thought those broken hours would turn to months and days Life is funny sometimes we don?t see what?s ?round the bend Life is funny sometimes rocky roads don?t ever (seem to) end chorus Everybody says: La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la Life is just that way Hey you had it nice Son, it can be nice again someday But they don?t remember you, what you?d do, the way you?d smile at me No how can they remember you, the way I do and the love that set me free. Every day I wish that we could go to where we were A diamond on the blanket in the sun, I hear those words I do remember you, even tho? I fear I won?t one day I do remember you and how I dreamt of loving you always chorus Now I cry: La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la Life can?t be this way God in Heaven help me but don?t wipe my tears away I still love her so, I do you know (can?t let go), she was my everything In my heart I fear without these tears, she?ll just fade away I do remember you, even tho? I fear I won?t one day I do remember you, and how I dreamt of loving you always Now I cry: La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la Life can?t be this way God in Heaven help me but don?t wipe my tears away I still love her so, I do you know (can?t let go), she was my everything In my heart I fear without these tears, she?ll just fade away
