Remember Lyrics

In November and December we would say

That Santa'd bring you presents on a golden sleigh.

Then we sang – it seems like only yesterday.

Remember? Remember?

The baseball game you nearly missed and almost won.

The crowd stood up and cheered when you hit your home run.

And how your mother cried and nearly came undone.

Remember? Remember?

The way you said goodnight

When you were tucked in tight.

Those silly games we never understood.

If we could hold you near

We'd whisper: "Have no fear"

For everything will soon turn out all right.

The paper heart you made in school on Mother's Day

Got wet and momma smiled and wiped your tears away.

It all seems so long ago and far away.

Remember? Remember?

The way you said goodnight

When you were tucked in tight.

Those silly games we never understood.

If we could hold you near

The past would disappear

And all your fears would melt like April snow.

We put the Christmas presents underneath your bed.

I held your mother's hand when she would kiss your head.

The room was dark and not a single word was said.

Remember? Remember, then?
