"Remember You Young" lyrics

"Remember You Young"

Hey buddies that I grew up with
All straight laced and married up now
You ain't foolin' me
Wasn't long ago we tore the roof off that one red light town
And hey darling sipping that red wine
All classy kicked back on the couch
You smile and I see ya shootin' tequila
Or shuttin' them college bars down

And no matter how much time goes by
And no matter how much we grow up
For worse or for better, from now 'til forever
I'll always remember you young

Hey babies crawling on the carpet
No, you won't be that little for long
One day you'll move away
But you're still gonna stay this innocent after you're gone

'Cause no matter how much time goes by
And no matter how much you grow up
For worse or for better, from now 'til forever
I'll always remember you young

Woah, oh, oh
Woah, oh, oh
Woah, oh, oh, oh, oh

Yeah, I hope when we get to heaven
He looks at us all like we're kids
Shameless and painless and perfect and ageless
Forgives all the wrong that we did

And no matter how much time goes by
I hope we never have to grow up
And he'll say 'For worse or for better, from now 'til forever
I'll always remember you young"

Woah, oh, I'll always remember you young

Thomas Rhett teased this song on Facebook by posting some lyrics of it with a picture of his two daughters. TasteOfCountry.com wrote about "Remember You Young", "The song pays lyrical tribute to scenes from his past, as well as his daughters, Willa Gray and Ada James."
In the press release, the singer had this to say, "We wrote this song about the people in life that we love, and always remembering them in their youth no matter how much time passes and we all change. There's something sentimental about remembering your very best friends who have real jobs and families now tearing it up in college, or picturing me and my wife with no cares at the Tin Roof back in Knoxville. I love that the last verse is a bit of twist with it all coming full circle. It actually makes me emotional … it's easily one of my favorite tracks on the album."
