You can't forget what love was wearing

When it walked out your front door


Where you fell down to your knees


And 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


Lying in a hammock over fresh cut grass


And the promise of forever

Yeah love remembers


The sound of the pouring 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

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

Running through soakin' wet hair


On the bank after a midnight swim

Yeah love remembers




Yeah love remembers

The smell of a summer day


Lying in a hammock over fresh cut grass

And the promise of forever

Love remembers


The sound of the pouring 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 pouring rain)

Beatin' down on the top of a car


(On the side of the road)

(Where it couldn't wait)
