I Remember Lyrics

I remember how I wanted to be just like you and nothing like me

I remember thinking oh how cool it must be to seem to be so free

And then it came on down, you hit the ground, there was no one around

And everything that I thought I could be, there was nothing left to be found

That's the way that I left you that day, there was nothing more left to say

I never even got to figure out why, I never even got to say good-bye

I remember such a long time ago you were all that I thought there could be

I remember looking way up high to see if I could see what you thought of me

You showed me so many things, taught me so much of life, what it means to be a man

If you could see what I'd like you to see you would know I'm doing all that I can

There's so many things that I wanted to say it's got to wait for another day

As you headed for that big blue sky, I never even got to say good-bye

You know the times that we had, oh it made me so glad, and then I ended up sad;

I Remember

I always wanted to be just like you can't you see, it always made me so free;

I Remember

When you left me that day I knew you just couldn't stay, you had to go far away;

I Remember

And now that you're gone, I've had to carry on, no need to dwell upon; Because

I Remember

I remember feeling so down low and thinking about the things I could have wished

I remember wanting so much more and realizing what I might have missed

I think today that I might have to say that I'm better off for what I had

To have known for such a short bit of time is so much better to have not and been sad

Even though I know you're not here today I know you're never really that far away

My only wish as I continue to try, is just for one more chance to say good-bye
