Perfect Memory

Remember how they always seemed to know

We had the forest in our eyes

But the earth was in our clothes

And they thought we'd fall

Not at all

So look back on the treasured days

We were young in a world that was so tired

Though it's not what we wanted before

Even the saints had to crawl from the floor

Summers when the money

Was gone you'd sing

All you're little songs

That meant every thing to me

And I'll remember you

And the things that we used to do

And the things that we used to say

I'll remember you that way

Remember how they tried to hold you down

And we climbed those towers

And looked down upon our town

And everything you hoped would last

But just always becomes your past it hurts

Summers when the money

Was gone you'd sing

All your little songs

That meant everything to me

And I'll remember you

And the things that we used to do

And the things that we used to say

I'll remember you always

But then this world slipped through my fingers

And even the sun seemed tired, I still cared

As I lowered you down my heart just jaded

In that moment the earth made no sound

But you were there

You helped me lift

My pain into the air

...

Come home

And I'll remember you

And the things that we used to do

And the things that we used to say

If it don't hurt you, it wont hurt me

It don't hurt me, then it wont hurt you

If it don't hurt you, it wont hurt me I know
