jake etheridge – the persistence of memory lyrics
[verse 1]
i remember driving, and the smell of rain
your hand was out the window flying like a plane
i remember smiling and staring at your face
like it could disappear if i blinked or looked away
old hickory in your sad dress
won’t let me go just yet
[verse 2]
well i remember sitting on your folks’ pull out couch
kept saying it was cold, i was staring at your mouth
but the more i read by memory, the less i pay it mind
just a story that we tell ourselves, almost a lullaby
but your eyes and the tv glow
they still won’t let me go
[bridge]
oh i know we had our reasons why
but i can not hold them in my mind
i know we had our reasons why, reasons why
but instead i…
[verse 3]
i remember watching you across the room
yeah i knew all your friends but i did not know you
then when you said your name, i almost felt sick
the whole world spun around, i loved you so quick
you laughed and turned your head
i can’t get free of it
[outro]
oh i know we had our reasons why
i know we had some real bad times
but i can not hold them in my mind, in my mind
