When You Could Still Remember

If I could go back in time

I'd rock a little longer on a back porch night

I'd ask you all about everything

The pictures on your wall and your wedding ring

Sorry I ain't called, and that I ain't been back

I really wanna see you but then leaving hurts too bad

Guess it makes me kind of angry, yeah, it makes me kind of sad

That I didn't spend more time with you

Back when you could still remember who I am

You used to burn your toast while you said your prayers

Yeah, I can still see you sitting there

Now your hair's more white than it is grey

They got you all cooped up in this strange place

Sorry I ain't called, and that I ain't been back

I really wanna see you but then leaving hurts too bad

Guess it makes me kind of angry, yeah, it makes me kind of sad

That I didn't spend more time with you

Back when you could still remember who I am

Green beans and mashed potatoes, staring out the window

I don't know where your mind has gone

You don't even recognize me

But I'm happy that you're smiling

I guess I'll take what I can get from now on

Sorry I ain't called, and that I ain't been back

I really wanna see you but then leaving hurts too bad

Guess it makes me kind of angry, yeah, it makes me kind of sad

That I didn't spend more time with you

Back when you could still remember who

That I didn't spend more time with you

Back when you could still remember who

How's it go again?

Then sings my soul

How's it go?

My Saviour come to thee

How great thou are, how great you are

Then sings my soul, my savior come to thee

How great thou are, how great you are

It's very good
