Remember the Time
迈克尔·杰克逊 Michael Jackson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do you remember
When we fell in love
We were so young and innocent then
Do you remember
How it all began
It just seemed like heaven so why did it end?

Do you remember
Back in the fall
We'd be together all day long
Do you remember
Us holding hands
In each other's eyes we'd stare
(Tell me)

Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time
When we first met girl
Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time

Do you remember
How we used to talk
(Ya know)
We'd stay on the phone at night till dawn
Do you remember
All the things we said like
I love you so I'll never let you go

Do you remember
Back in the Spring
Every morning birds would sing
Do you remember
Those special times
They'll just go on and on
In the back of my mind

Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time
When we first met girl
Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time

Those sweet memories
Will always be dear to me
And girl no matter what was said
I will never forget what we had
Now baby!

Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time
When we first met
Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time

Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time
When we first met
Do you remember the time
When we fell in love
Do you remember the time

Remember the times
Ooh
Remember the times
Do you remember girl
Remember the times
On the phone you and me
Remember the times
Till dawn, two or three
What about us girl

Remember the times
Do you, do you, do you, do you, do you
Remember the times
In the park, on the beach
Remember the times
You and me in Spain
Remember the times
What about, what about

Remember the times
Ooh, in the park
Remember the times
After dark
Do you, do you, do you
Remember the times
Do you, do you, do you, do you




Remember the times
Yeah yeah

Overall Meaning

In "Remember The Time," Michael Jackson reminisces about a past relationship that was sweet and innocent. He asks his former lover to remember the days when they first fell in love, remembering every aspect of their relationship, from the way they used to talk and hold hands to the things they used to say to each other. Even though the relationship is over, Jackson emphasizes that those times will always be dear to him and will never be forgotten.


Through these lyrics, Jackson expresses a feeling of longing for a simpler time in his life when love was pure and innocent. It's a sentiment that speaks to the universal experience of growing older and looking back on one's past with nostalgia. The song's upbeat tempo, in contrast to the bittersweet lyrics, evokes a sense of both joy and sorrow, as well as the recognition that memories of the past will always be a part of us.
