"Do You Remember?" lyrics

"Do You Remember?"

We never talked about it
But I hear the blame was mine
I'd call you up to say I'm sorry
But I wouldn't wanna waste your time

'Cause I love you, but I can't take any more
There's a look I can't describe in your eyes
If we could try, like we tried before
Would you keep on telling me those lies?
(Telling me lies)
Do you remember?

(Do you remember?)
Do you remember?
(Do you remember?)

There seemed no way to make up
'Cause it seemed your mind was set
And the way you looked: it told me
It's a look I know I'll never forget

You could've come over to my side
You could've let me know
You could've tried to see the distance between us
But it seemed too far for you to go
(So far to go)
Do you remember?

(Do you remember?)
Ooh, do you remember?
(Do you remember?)

Through all of my life
In spite of all the pain
You know how people are funny sometimes
'Cause they just can't wait to get hurt again

Tell me, do you remember?
(Do you remember?)

There are things we won't recall
And feelings we'll never find
It's taken so long to see it
'Cause we never seemed to have the time

There was always something more important to do
More important to say
But "I love you" wasn't one of those things
And now it's too late
(Now it's too late)
Do you remember?

(Do you remember?)
(Now it's over)
(Do you remember?)
(Ooh it's over)
Ooh, do you remember?

(Do you remember?)
(Now it's over)
(Do you remember?)
(Ooh it's over)
Tell me do you remember?

(Do you remember?)
(Now it's over)
Tell me, do you remember?
(Do you remember?)
(Ooh it's over)

Tell me now, tell me now (Do you remember? Now it's over)
Tell me now, tell me now (Do you remember? Ooh, it's over)
Do you remember?

(Do you remember?)
(Now it's over)
Do you do you do you do you
(Do you remember?)
(Ooh it's over)
Do you do you remember?

In 1990, "Do You Remember?" peaked at number 2 on the US Hot 100 Airplay and number 4 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.
This song was used in the film 'Fire Birds' (1990) starring Nicolas Cage and Sean Young.
Phil Collins said in a 2010 interview for The Mail on Sunday, "It's about how you might meet an old flame in the street and start to reminisce, realising that the reasons for breaking up were maybe not what you remembered. We paint ourselves into corners, and pride doesn't allow us to see things any other way."
