Remember Me
it's not enough
to say i've loved and lost
just a thought
to know i had it all
times can change
turn the page
turn down this bed alone
[chorus:]
do you still remember me
how could you forget
you're everything i need
i'm out here on the ledge
there's no words for me to say
and too much to regret
you're where i should be
do you remember when
i let you go
what was i thinking of
i'll never know
what it's like to love
but there's no way
how can i replace
love so strong
when i can't forget your face
[repeat chorus]
we used to dance
i used to sing
do you remember
you and me
'cause if i could
hold your hand
i'd be a king
'cause i remember
everything
[repeat chorus]
The lyrics to Junior Byles & Rupert Reid's song "Remember Me" revolve around a person who has lost their love and is grappling with the memories of the past. The singer is regretting losing love as they reminisce on the past dance and sing sessions with their former lover. They are at the brink of loneliness and are struggling to cope with the reality of being alone. They've realized that they had it all but didn't appreciate it at the time. The singer is haunted by memories of their lost love, and they're hoping to rekindle what they once had.
The chorus of the song is a plea to the former lover to remember them. The singer is asking if their ex still remembers them because they cannot forget what they once had. They're saying that the memories of the past still resonate with them and that no matter what happens, they will always think of their love as strong. The final verses of the song indicate that the singer would do anything to rekindle what they once had, but they understand that it might not be possible.
