The song remembers when
Trisha Yearwood
I was standing at the counter
I was waiting for the change
When I heard that old familiar music start
It was like a lighted match
Had been tossed into my soul
It was like a damn had broken in my heart
After taking every detour getting lost and losing track
So that even if I wanted I could not find my way back
After driving out the memory of the way things might have been
After I'd forgotten all about us the song remember when
We were rolling through the Rockies
We were up above the clouds
When a station out of Jackson played that song
And it seemed to fit the moment
And the moment seemed to freeze
And we turned the music up and sang along
And there was a God in heaven and the world made perfect sense
We were young and were in love and we were easy to convince
We were heading straight for Eden, it was just around the Bend
And though I had forgotten all about it the song remembers when
I guess something must have happened and we must have said goodbye
And my heart must have been broken, though I can't recall just why
The song remembers when
But for all the miles between us and for all the time that's pasts
You would think I hadn't gotten very far
And I hope my hasty heart would forgive just this once
If I stop and wonder how on earth you are
But that's just a lot of water underneath a bridge I've burned
And there's no use in back-tracking around corners I have turned
Still I guess some things we bury are just bound to rise again
Even if the whole world has forgotten, the song remembers when
Yea, and even if the whole world has forgotten, The song remembers when
