I Remember - Mahalia

Woke up today, jumped out of bed

Feeling kinda great cause you’re on my head

Regrets and mistakes put it behind us instead

Back to the old days when we knew what lay ahead

And I, I was wondering if I was on your mind

But I’m so out of line, I’ll just get declined

'Cause you’re happier this time without me in your life

I remember how we used to be

I remember when you loved me

I remember when you made me cups of tea

And I remember how scared you were when you met my family

And I remember when I used to make you smile

I remember when you used to come around

I remember every time I had a frown

You’d hold me until the stars came out and the sun went down

I’m not saying we can last forever

I just think we could be much better

If you disagree then, honey go get her

Don’t bother writing an apologetic letter

'Cause darlin', darlin' I won’t reply

You’re so out of line and you’ll just get declined

'Cause I’m happier this time without you in my life

And I remember how we used to be

I remember when you loved me

I remember when you made me cups of tea

And I remember how scared you were when you met my family

And I remember when I used to make you smile

I remember when you used to come around

I remember every time I had a frown

You’d hold me until the stars came out and the sun went down

Down, down, down, down, down

I remember how we used to be

I remember how we used to be

Down, down, down, down, down

I, I remember every time I had a frown you’d hold me

I remember how we used to be

I remember when you loved me

I remember when you made me cups of tea

And I remember how scared you were when you met my family

And I remember when I used to make you smile

I remember when you used to come around

I remember every time I had a frown

You’d hold me until the stars came out and the sun went…
