"You Remember Me" lyrics

"You Remember Me"

They say no one should call on you
Unless he's your permission to
But me, I just came anyway
I couldn't care less what you say

'Cause I know you from long before
You hid behind a stained-glass door
And walked around in your dressing gown
And looked your old friend up and down

But anyway, I thought I'd come give you a look
At where you're from
And I let you know that I still recall
What a child you are underneath it all

You remember me the funny way I cry
The funny way I sit there when someone says goodbye

The funny way I wind up lost
When someone sets me free
Why sure, you remember me

Well, I won't take up your whole day
I've said 'bout all I have to say
I suppose I'll be moving on
I know you'll be glad to see me gone
Tonight is our last night in town
So don't worry about me hanging around
Tomorrow night it's Calgary
And you will be good and rid of me

But anyway, I thought I'd come give you a look
At where you're from
And I let you know that I still recall
What a child you are underneath it all

You remember me the funny way I cry
The funny way I sit there when someone says goodbye

The funny way I wind up lost
When someone sets me free
Why sure, you remember me, you remember me

You remember me, you remember me
You remember me, you remember me
You remember me
