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
