"I Still Remember" lyrics

"I Still Remember"

I, I still remember
How you looked that afternoon
There was only you

You said, "It's just like a full moon."
Blood beats faster in our veins
We left our trousers by the canal
And our fingers, they almost touched

You should have asked me for it
I would have been brave
You should have asked me for it
How could I say "no"?

And our love could have soared
Over playgrounds and rooftops
Every park bench screams your name
I kept your tie

I'd have gone wherever you wanted

I still remember
I still remember

And on that teachers' training day
We wrote our names on every train
Laughed at the people off to work
So monochrome and so lukewarm

And I can see our days are becoming nights
I could feel your heartbeat across the grass
We should have run
I would go with you anywhere
I should have kissed you by the water

You should have asked me for it
I would have been brave
You should have asked me for it
How could I say "no"?

And our love could have soared
Over playgrounds and rooftops
Every park bench screams your name
I kept your tie

I'd have let you if you asked me
I still remember, I still remember
I still remember, I still remember
