Love Remembers

You can forget what love was wearing 
When it walked out your front door 
Where you fell down to your knees 

And you can 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 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 and for awhile 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 
The feel of 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 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
