The Song Remembers When

In the style of

Trisha Yearwood

Lyrics

i was standing
at the counter
i was waitin' for
the change
when i heard that old
familiar music start

it was like a lighted
match had been
tossed into my soul
it was like a dam had
broken in my heart

after taking every
detour
gettin' lost and
losin' track
so that even if
i wanted i could not
find my way back

after drivin' out
the memory of
the way things
might have been
after i'd forgotten
all about us
the song remembers
when

we were rollin'
through the rockies
we were up above
the clouds
when a station
out of jackson
played that song

and it seemed
to fit the moment
and the moment
seemed to freeze
when we turned
the music up
and sang along

and there was a god
in heaven and
the world made
perfect sense
we were young and
were in love
and we were
easy to convince

we were headed
straight for eden
it was just
around the bend

and though i had
forgotten
all about it
the song remembers
when

i guess something
must have happened
and we must've said
goodbye

and my heart
must have been
broken though
i can't recall
just why
the song remembers
when

oh for all the miles
between us
and for all the time
that's passed
you would think
i haven't gotten
very far

and i hope my hasty
heart will forgive me
just this once
if i stop to wonder
how on earth you are

but that's just
a lot of water
underneath
the bridge i burned
and there's no use in
backtrackin'
around corners
i have turned

still i guess
some things we bury
are just bound to rise
again

for even if
the whole world
has forgotten
the song remembers
when

yeah and even if
the whole world
has forgotten
the song remembers
when
