Remember That
Rachel Proctor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How he told you
You were stupid
How he couldn't even look at you anymore
Remember,
How he told you
You were crazy
How he got out of the car and slammed the door.
He said, "You can't do anything right.
Why you gotta make me so mad?
Just get out of my sight."
Remember that
When it's 3am
And he's at your door
And he wants you back
And he's beggin' for
Forgiveness
Remember that
When your phone keeps ringing
All night long
And that same old' weakness
Gets so strong and you're
Remember That Lyrics
Helpless
Remember that
Remember,
How he pushed you in the hallway
Just enough to hurt a little bit.
Remember,
The whiskey in his whispers
And the lies that fell so easy from his lips.
He said he'd never do it again
But he can't take it back
The proof is on your skin
Remember that
When it's 3am
And he's at your door
And he wants you back
And he's beggin' for
Forgiveness
Remember that
When your phone keeps ringing
All night long
And that same old' weakness
Gets so strong and you're
Helpless,
Remember that
It doesn't matter how he hurts you
With his hands or with his words you
Don't deserve it
It ain't worth it.
Take your heart and run
Just run
When it's 3am
And he's at your door
And he wants you back
And he's beggin' for
Forgiveness
Remember that
When your phone keeps ringing
All night long
And that same old' weakness
Gets so strong and you're
Helpless
Remember that
Remember that.
Remember you're gonna be alright
Take it from me; I've stood there in your shoes
The song Remember That by Rachel Proctor is about a woman who was abused in a relationship, and now the abuser is trying to come back into her life. The opening verses of the song vividly describe how the abuser used to talk down to her and make her feel worthless. She sings that, while it may be tempting to let him back into her life, she shouldn't forget how he treated her in the past. Then the chorus comes in, reminding her that when she's feeling weak and helpless, she should remember how he used to treat her so that she doesn't make the same mistake again.
The second verse talks about how the abuser used to use physical violence and emotional manipulation to control her. But now, even though he's begging for forgiveness and trying to come back into her life, she knows she needs to stay strong and not get into that toxic relationship again. The message of the song is clear: it's important to remember how someone treated you in the past and not let them back in if they were abusive to you.

Dude, we don't want audio on Youtube, we have other apps for that. Giving a thumbs down just for misleading the public. Also, the song is from Jessica Simpson. Only written contribution from Rachel

Apparently the artists like when I do one of them. I have over 200 autographed pictures and CDs sent to me from them! On YouTube, if it does not say Official or Live, you can avoid slideshows.

There are 234,713 views of my videos. My channel before this one had over a million. Maybe other people like a song/video story of an artist if you don't.

. The single was written by Rachel Proctor and Victoria Banks and produced by Brett James and John Shanks. Simpson covered it. If audio and a picture story of an artist is not for you, your choice. There are several pictures of Rachel and Victoria singing their song in this.
