“I Remember” ©barbara, FAWM2015, 02.02.2015
Liner Notes:
This song is influenced by the fact that my mother has Vascular Dementia and is less and less able to reminisce with me, which I thought was going to be the saving grace. So this is part lament, and part acceptance of the new relationship we are working out. If it’s repetitive, well… welcome to our world!
Lyrics:
I remember… (x 4)
I remember all the things that used to be so special to you
the things that made you proud to be the one you were
and I give them to you slowly; when you’re empty it’s so lonely
and I wish you knew the woman that you were
but it’s alright that I’m with you…and not with her
(repeat)
and I want you… to be happy…
I want you… to be happy…
I want you… to be happy
(repeat verse)
I remember…
I remember…
