It's Easy To Remember
Karrin Allyson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Your sweet expression
The smile you gave me,
The way you looked when we meet
It′s easy to remember
But so hard to forget.
I hear you whisper,
"I'll always lave you"
I know it′s over and yet
It's easy to remember
But so hard to forget.

So I must dream
To have your hand caress me,
Fingers press me tight.
I'd rather dream
Than have the lonely feeling
Stealing through the nigh.

Each little moment
Is clear before me,
And though it brings me regret




It′s easy to remember
But so hard to forget.

Your sweet expression
The kind look on your face


The smile you gave me,
the happiness you shared with me


The way you looked when we meet
The sight of you when we first met


It's easy to remember
It's simple to recall these pleasant memories


But so hard to forget.
Yet, very difficult to let go of them


I hear you whisper,
The sound of your voice whispering


"I'll always love you"
"I will forever cherish you"


I know it's over and yet
I understand that our relationship is finished


It's easy to remember
Despite the ending, these memories still easy to recall


But so hard to forget.
But still extremely challenging to forget forever


So I must dream
Therefore, I must try to imagine


To have your hand caress me,
Your hand touching mine intimately


Fingers press me tight.
Fingers touching me firmly


I'd rather dream
I wish to dream instead


Than have the lonely feeling
Than the dreaded feeling of loneliness


Stealing through the night.
Creeping over me during the night


Each little moment
These insignificant sections of time


Is clear before me,
Are all vivid in my mind


And though it brings me regret
Though these memories make me sad


It's easy to remember
These memories are still readily remembered


But so hard to forget.
But nearly impossible to forget entirely
