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
but love will not grow old
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]
