Remember My Name
Chris Brown Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I hear your voice, you’ve got nothing left to say
I’ll take this start of my heart
I’ll take this bullet, I’ll take it for love
So if the lights in the sky come crashing down
I still can find your love even in the crowd
But will you remember me
Remember my name, will you remember my name
Remember my name (I love you, I love you, love you)
Remember my name (I love you, I love you, love you)
Remember my name (I love you, I love you, love you)
I need my kiss, but your lips are far away
So I have no choice, so I guess I’ll have to stay and love away
And I’ma take this stop from my heart,
Bang bang, I take this bullet, bang bang I’ll take it for love
Bang bang, I’ll take it for love,
Bang bang, I’ll take it for us
Will you remember my name, my name, my name, my name
Remember my name, my name, my name, my name
Will you remember my name, my name, my name, my name
Remember my name, my name, my name, my name
(I love you, I love you, love you)
Remember my name (I love you, I love you, love you)
Remember my name (I love you, I love you, love you)
Floating above the clouds and sky
Wishing upon the falling star
Hoping my love hasn’t forgot my name
It’s automatic this is stratchin'
This love is so strong
Too bad ever glad baby wishin' we can float up
We can fly, higher babe, higher babe, higher babe,
Higher babe, higher babe,
Just fly high
Higher babe, higher babe, higher babe, higher babe,

Just levitate, I just wanna levitate
