I Remember
Damien Rice & Lisa Hannigan Lyrics

I remember it well, the first time that I saw Your head 'round the door 'Cause mine stopped working
I vividly recall the moment when I saw you for the first time, as your appearance mesmerized me to such an extent that it rendered me speechless.

I remember it well, there was wet in your hair I was stood in the stair And time stopped moving
I recollect very well the occurrence when I saw you with wet hair, as it froze me in my tracks, causing time to stall.

I want you here tonight, I want you here 'Cause I can't believe what I found I want you here tonight, want you here Nothing is taking me down, down, down
I yearn for your presence tonight, as I am overwhelmed by the sensation of finding true love, and nothing can bring me down except you, my beloved.

I remember it well, taxied out of the storm To watch you perform And my ships were sailing
I distinctly remember the time when I drove through a storm to witness your performance, and in that moment, it felt like all of my problems were solved.

I remember it well, I was stood in your line And your mouth, your mouth, your mind
I have a clear recollection of standing in a line to see you, and your mouth and your thoughts were all that consumed me in that instant.

Come all ye lost Dive into moss And hope that my sanity covers the cost To remove the stain of my love Paper maché
All the lost souls, throng towards me, seek solace in hiding, hoping against hope that my sanity can endure the repercussions arising from my love, and that it can purge the stains left behind like paper maché.

Come all ye reborn Blow off my horn I'm driving real hard This is love, this is porn God would forgive me But I, I whip myself scorn, scorn
All the ones who are reborn, awaken your instincts and charge at me like the swish of a horn, as I am moving forward in the name of love, in the name of eroticism. I know God will forgive me, but I hold myself in contempt.

And I wanna hear what you have to say about me Hear if you're gonna live without me I wanna hear what you want I remember December
I want to know your thoughts about me, whether you can survive without me, I want to know your desires, and I recall the memories of December.

And I wanna hear what you have to say about me Hear if you're gonna live without me I wanna hear what you want What the hell do you want?
I want to know your thoughts, whether you can exist without me or not, I want to know what you need, and I am asking for clarification on what exactly you want from me.
