hayes carll - help me remember lyrics

[verse 1]
the leaves on that ancient old oak tree are starting to turn
the same shades as the flames of this fire that i’m watching burn
there’s an unfinished crossword resting on the arm of this chair
and for the life of me i can’t recall if i’m the one that left it there

[verse 2]
it feels so familiar as i watch you walk in the room
and at first i don’t recognise you but then i d+mn sure recognise that perfume
and you kneel down beside me and gently take hold of my hand
i say baby i’m scared and i’m not sure i know who i am

[chorus 1]
and can you help mе remember who it is that i usеd to be?
and can you tell me the story of my family, my hopes and my dreams?
did i try to stand for something, would i always fold?
did i do things when i was young to be proud of when i was old?
was our house on fire or was i just a slow burning ember?
could you please help me remember?

[verse 3]
this ring on my finger is golden, faded and worn
like it was forged in the fires of love and it’s weathered the storms
i try to make sense of these old photographs on the wall
but they’re just faces and places that i don’t know at all
[chorus 2]
and can you help me remember, i feel like i’m losing my mind
i know there’s a story, it’s getting harder to find
did i protect my children, stand up for my friends?
how damage did i do, did i ever make amends?
did i try to make a difference, did i give a d+mn?
was i believer in god and his plan?
did i light up your life like a full moonlight night in december?
could you please help me remember?
i need you to help me remember
