Love Remembers

You can't forget what love was wearin'
When it walked out your front door
Where you fell down to your knees

And you can't forget the kind of suitcase
That was packed out on the sidewalk
While you cried there beggin' please
But love remembers

You can lie and tell yourself
You're over it and someone else will take love's place
And this is for the best

You can lie in that bed
In a stranger's arms reachin' for comfort
Close your eyes and still get no rest

Cause love remembers
The smell of a summer day
Lyin' in a hammock over fresh cut grass
And the promise of forever

Yeah, love remembers
The sound of the pourin' rain
Beatin' down on the top of a car
On the side of the road where it couldn't wait
Yeah, love remembers

You might convince yourself
There's shelter in a bottle
And for a while there it might numb the pain

But when it hits you, then it hits you
That love's still gone and you'll be wishin'
That you'd poured it down the drain

'Cause love remembers
The taste of cotton candy lip gloss
On the lips of a long kiss
And the plans they made together

Yeah, love remembers to feel the fingertips
Runnin' through soakin' wet hair
On the bank after a midnight swim
Yeah, love remembers

Yeah, love remembers
The smell of a summer day
Lyin' in a hammock over fresh cut grass
And the promise of forever

Love remembers
The sound of the pourin' rain
Beatin' down on the top of a car
On the side of the road where it couldn't wait
Yeah, love remembers

Love remembers, love remembers
The sound of the pourin' rain
Beatin' down on the top of a car
On the side of the road where it couldn't wait

Love remembers
The smell of a summer day
Lyin' in a hammock over fresh cut grass
And the promise of forever
