lyrics

remember walking home in cowboy boots
walking barefoot on the avenue
the sound of your dress
as we walked with our friends
you were gone the minute i came back

remember singing about a lonely girl
singing trucker songs with your dad
at the wheel
words we never knew
oh i wrote them with you
sang chat aqua in my basement
with a groom

remember sleeping back on the window
sleeping under covers that you stole
mary’s lullaby
we never say goodnight
sinking a mattress by your side

remember sneaking liquor in your purse
drinking with your family in pittsburgh
propped against the house
carried across town
i love you
in a whisper

remember making puppets out of bags
learning to play banjo for the band
same drink every night
another barroom fight
a heart that knows
you’re always right

remember playing horseshoes in the heat
sitting on the rooftops with bare feet
oak sang us a song
the crickets played along
lovely lady i shouldn’t have forgot

remember going on and on forever
remember being naive party crashers
there’s an empty room on berkeley street
i’m leaving in a week
just promise you’ll remember me
just promise you’ll remember me
