[00:04.84]Perfect Memory
[00:05.43]by Remy Zero
[00:06.20]album: The Golden Hum (2001)
[00:19.94]Remember how they always seemed to know
[00:28.89]We had the forest in our eyes but the earth was in our clothes
[00:37.40]They thought we'd fall
[00:41.69]Not at all
[00:47.71]
[00:48.07]So look back on your treasured days
[00:52.60]When we were young in a world that was so tired
[00:57.53]Though it's not what we wanted before
[01:02.37]Even the saints had to crawl from the floor
[01:06.96]
[01:08.19]Summers when the money was gone you'd sing
[01:13.02]All your little songs that meant everything to me
[01:17.29]
[01:17.55]And I'll remember you
[01:21.75]And the things that we used to do
[01:26.78]And the things that we used to say
[01:32.13]I'll remember you
[01:36.29]That way
[01:41.07]
[01:41.85]Remember how they tried to hold you down
[01:50.55]And we climbed those towers and looked out upon our town
[02:00.21]And everything you hoped would last
[02:04.97]It just always becomes your past
[02:09.14]It hurts
[02:09.95]
[02:10.32]But summer's when the money was gone you'd sing
[02:15.62]All your little songs that meant everything to me
[02:19.84]
[02:20.07]And I'll remember you
[02:24.55]And the things that we used to do
[02:29.39]And the things that we used to say
[02:34.69]I'll remember you
[02:38.81]Always
[02:43.12]
[02:45.00]But then how this world slipped through my fingers
[02:51.80]And even the sun seemed tired
[02:55.48]I still cared
[02:58.89]As they lowered you down my heart just jaded
[03:05.29]In that moment the earth made no sound
[03:10.26]But you were there
[03:13.20]You helped me lift my pain into the air
[03:27.24]
[03:37.70]I still miss you
[03:39.78]God I still miss you
[03:41.78]I know that you are waiting there
[03:47.20]I always thought that you'd come home
[03:55.63]
[03:56.21]And I'll remember you
[04:00.38]And the things that we used to do
[04:05.48]And the things that we used to say
[04:09.59]
[04:10.25]If it don't hurt you it won't hurt me
[04:15.30]If it don't hurt me it won't hurt you
[04:20.03]If it don't hurt you it won't hurt me that way
