Try To Remember
Tommy Körberg feat. Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra Lyrics

Try to remember the kind of September
Recall the memories of a September from the past

When life was slow and oh so mellow
When the pace of life was unhurried and peaceful

When grass was green and grain was yellow
When nature's colors were vibrant and bountiful

When you were a tender and a callow fellow
When you were young, inexperienced and naive

Try to remember and if you remember
Try to recollect and if you can

Then follow
Pursue those memories and let them guide you

Try to remember when life was so tender
Recall a time when life was gentle and kind

That no one wept except the willow
When sadness and sorrow were felt only by the willow trees

Try to remember when life was so tender
When emotions were raw and unguarded

That dreams were kept beside your pillow
When dreams were cherished and treasured by you

Try to remember when life was so tender
When love was pure and unbridled

That love was an ember about to billow
When love was still in its nascent stages and about to blossom

Try to remember and if you remember
Try to recall and if you can

Then follow
Let those tender memories guide you along the way

Deep in December it's nice to remember
Even in cold and dark December, it's comforting to recall

Although you know the snow will follow
Even though you know that snow and winter are inevitable

Deep in December it's nice to remember
It's still nice to recollect those memories of the past

Without a hurt the heart is hollow
Without experiencing pain, the heart feels empty

Deep in December
In the depths of December, the coldest of months

It's nice to remember
It's delightful to remember that there are warmer days ahead

The fire of September that made us mellow
The passion and warmth of September that made us feel at ease

Deep in December our hearts should remember and follow
Even in the winter chill, our hearts should hold onto those memories and let them guide us
