scott seskind - i remember lyrics

Loading...

this is something i wrote
a few days before my friend arrived
i remember

i remember meeting you
i was fourteen
now i’m thirty-one
you’re my oldest friend

i remember driving through the canyon
with two girls we’d just met
your hand was on her breast
and i was impressed

i remember coming over
and from the backroom
hearing you and your mother fighting
about something that you didn’t do

and now your ma is almost dying
and you feel all on your own
and i’m sitting here almost crying
but i want you to know you won’t be alone when she goes

you were someone i could go off to
someone i could stay up with
someone i could talk to
and someone i could play with
and i hope my son finds a friend like you

i remember driving to seattle
i was sixteen
we were stopping at the lakes
and the streams, and the forests
those were good times

i remember walking
you were talking about changes
i said “let’s turn around”
but you said, “keep walking
we might meet our wives there”

i remember being angry
when you got into that night club without me
and left me outside
but i was your ride, so i waited

and now your ma is dying
she’s just lying in bed
and i can’t help but wonder
if it was my ma instead

you did things while i backed out
you stuck up while i snuck back
people thought that we were drunk or taking something
but we were only having fun
never taking none

i remember swimming in the ocean
even when we didn’t want to
but we had to cause we said we would

i remember listening to bowie
and elton
and the beatles
and curling weights til the blood in our veins was bulging

and you told me all your secrets
that no one knew
in the middle of the night
in my parents back room

and now your ma is almost dying
and you feel all on your own
and i’m sitting here almost crying
but i want you to know
that you won’t be alone when she goes
you won’t be alone when she goes
