"Remember To Cry" lyrics
"Remember To Cry"
I never saw you again after April
The ground was still covered in snow
When you kissed me goodbye for the last time
And I was the last one to know
Well, I know all about all the good things
That I'm lucky to love you at all
But if I would have known it was you on the phone
I swear I'd have taken the call
Now, I can't erase what has happened
And we can't travel backwards in time
But if I would have known you'd leave me all alone
I would have remembered to cry
It was never the same after April
The stars all forgot how to shine
They grew foggy and they faded from my memory
And I was the last one to mind
They say nothing can hold on forever
And it's not even ours to ask why
It was out of the blue, but if I only knew
I could have at least said goodbye
Now, I can't erase what has happened
And we can't travel backwards in time
But if I would have known you'd leave me all alone
I would have remembered to cry
Well, it's never the ones you see coming
That knock you right down to your knees
Instead, it's the shot that hits the blind spot
That you were the last one to see
And just as you fall in a pattern
Just when you have found a routine
Your everything shifts and skids right off a cliff
Before you remember to scream
Now, I can't erase what has happened
And we can't travel backwards in time
But if I would have known you'd leave me all alone
I would have remembered to cry
Now, I can't erase what has happened
And we can't travel backwards in time
But if I would have known you'd leave me all alone
I would have remembered to cry
Yes, I would have remembered to cry
