Love Remembers

You can't forget what love was wearin'

When it walked out your front door

Where you fell down to your knees

And you can't forget the kind of suitcase

That was packed out on the sidewalk

While you cried there beggin', please

But love remembers

You can lie and tell yourself

You're over it and someone else will take love's place

And this is for the best

You can lie in that bed

In a stranger's arms, reachin' for comfort

Close your eyes and still get no rest

'Cause love remembers the smell of a summer day

Lyin' in a hammock over fresh cut grass

And the promise of forever

Yeah, love remembers

The sound of a pourin' rain beatin' down on the top of a car

On the side of the road where it couldn't wait

Yeah, love remembers

You might convince yourself there's shelter in a bottle

And for a while there it might numb the pain

But when it hits you, then it hits you

That love's still gone and you'll be wishin'

That you'd poured it down the drain

'Cause love remembers the taste of cotton candy lip gloss

On the lips of a long kiss

And the plans they made together

Yeah, love remembers

To feel the fingertips runnin' through soakin' wet hair

On the bank after a midnight swim

Yeah, love remembers

Yeah, love remembers the smell of a summer day

Lyin' in a hammock over fresh cut grass

And the promise of forever

Love remembers

The sound of a pourin' rain beatin' down on the top of a car

On the side of the road where it couldn't wait

Yeah, love remembers

Love remembers

(Love remembers)

(And the promise of forever)
