I Remember by Michigan Rattlers Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well I loved you when I was 19, I didn't think of anything else
And you were there when I turned 20, well I barely knew myself
Yeah remember our first winter, didn't have much to do
We stayed up drinking old Stout with the only folks we knew
[Chorus]
And I remember, looking in your eyes
And I remember, trying not to cry
Honey I remember, coffee in my cup
And my hands were shaking but I wasn't waking up
[Verse 2]
Well we talked about getting married and the kids we would have
We don't talk about that anymore, we ain't living in the past
But there were holes in the door and ash on the ground
And roaches in the bathroom, yeah we had the greatest place in town
[Chorus]
And I remember, looking in your eyes
And I remember, trying not to cry
Honey I remember, coffee in my cup
And my hands were shaking but I wasn't waking up
[Verse 3]
And the day that you left, you know I left too
Headed north up Lake Michigan til I ran outta room
And the hours moved along just like any other day
But the sun went down and I closed my eyes
You were a thousand miles away
[Chorus]
And I remember, looking in your eyes
And I remember, trying not to cry
Honey I remember, coffee in my cup
And my hands were shaking but I wasn't waking up
And my hands were shaking, and I'm never waking up
Well I loved you when I was 19, I didn't think of anything else
And you were there when I turned 20, well I barely knew myself
Yeah remember our first winter, didn't have much to do
We stayed up drinking old Stout with the only folks we knew
[Chorus]
And I remember, looking in your eyes
And I remember, trying not to cry
Honey I remember, coffee in my cup
And my hands were shaking but I wasn't waking up
[Verse 2]
Well we talked about getting married and the kids we would have
We don't talk about that anymore, we ain't living in the past
But there were holes in the door and ash on the ground
And roaches in the bathroom, yeah we had the greatest place in town
[Chorus]
And I remember, looking in your eyes
And I remember, trying not to cry
Honey I remember, coffee in my cup
And my hands were shaking but I wasn't waking up
[Verse 3]
And the day that you left, you know I left too
Headed north up Lake Michigan til I ran outta room
And the hours moved along just like any other day
But the sun went down and I closed my eyes
You were a thousand miles away
[Chorus]
And I remember, looking in your eyes
And I remember, trying not to cry
Honey I remember, coffee in my cup
And my hands were shaking but I wasn't waking up
And my hands were shaking, and I'm never waking up
