I'll Remember You - Steve Carlson

I made you a table

one that’s safe and one that looks strong

to keep your candles and your books on

it might just make me able

to share with you what I go

all that’s real and all that’s not

'cause there’s a song in me that sings

the things I told myself to forget and to make it through

but I’ll remember you

I’ll remember you

I’ll take my fingertips on a trip of your body

with nothing other than my lips to guide me

we’ll lay around and we’ll play all afternoon

oh and one more entry for your journal baby

you met a boy and you’re making him crazy too

and after all those things I told myself to forget and to make it through

I’ll remember you

yeah I’ll remember you

there ain’t no other reason why

you’re always on my mind

in memories that ended long ago

and no matter how I tried to avoid the last goodbye

you still said goodbye

but I know that

ona day girl you’re gonna turn around and look for me

and find the shadow standing next to you

is not the one you want it to be

but by then I’ll be long gone so when you call out

I’ll probably think back to a time telling me

they’re was a reason for you leaving

in the place yeah

and there’s not much to say

'cause after all these things I told myself to forget and tomake it through

I’ll remember you

yeah I’ll remember you
