Lyrics
I Don?t Remember You
© 2000 Tim Moyer
I can remember you laughing at me when I dropped the kite string
I can remember you watching me cry
I can remember you leaving one day and never saying a thing
I can remember you never coming back and I?m wondering why
I don?t remember you
I can remember the smell of your after shave as you went off to work
I can remember wanting to be like you some day
I can remember you screaming at her for no apparent reason
I can remember the look on her face as you drove away
But I don?t remember you
I don?t remember I keep coming up dry but for the tiers in my eyes
My heart can?t render an impressionist view of all the faces of you
I read the letter that you wrote, never mentioned me
I don?t remember ?cause momma always protected me
And I never knew how you died
And I never thought to ask myself why
All these tiers inside are coming up dry ?cause I don?t remember you
I can remember the sound of your shoes on the pavement
I can remember fearing the man in the clean white shirt
I can remember the sound and the smell in the air
I can remember all these things, but
I don?t remember you
