I Remember
Jason Manns Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey you, when I saw you walk in there
And I couldn't help but stare
At the way you move your hands
Cause its the little things you do that drive me crazy
And now, lets forget about the crowd
And just concentrate on us
So that you can know what I want you to know
I remember how it started
You had everything I wanted
I was helpless to resist
But I didn't want to

Only if you would hold me tight
As we talked all through the night
About those things you won't tell no one else
I know that we've got some ways to go
But I want you to know that I'll be there til the end
So don't you worry

I remember how it started
You had everything I wanted
I was helpless to resist




But I didn't want to
Cause I fell in love with you
