I remember being half asleep on a beach along the august shore,
I remember feeling so alive,
You were mine, and we were seventeen,
I wish I could have owned that day,
I wish that moment could have been suspended,
And if I could've had my way that summer would've never ended.
I'll remember you,
We were young, we were sure of everything,
I'll remember you,
Life goes on, but I'll always remember you.
I remember when it came apart,
All the pain of that broken lover's dream,
I swore that I would never give my heart out again,
Of course I would, but it... it wouldn't ever be the same,
Maybe love was meant to last forever,
Now even as your picture fades, sometimes I close my eyes and we're together.
I'll remember you,
And the feeling of your lips, and the hunger in your kiss, (we were young, we were sure of everything)
I'll remember you,
For as long as there is. (life goes on, I will remember you)
I know you can't go back again, I know that we were only human,
Sometimes I still can't help remembering when we were innocent and love was something new.
I'll remember you,
I remember your smile like an innocent child, (we were young, we were sure of everything)
I'll remember you,
And the beating of your heart, and the freedom of your arms, (life goes on, but I'll still remember)
I'll remember you,
Like an image on a screen, like a vision in a dream, (we were young, we were sure of everything)
I'll remember you,
Yeah, you won't be hard to find with your frozen love in time, (life goes on, but I'll still remember)
I'll remember you,
We were young, we were sure of everything,
I'll remember you,
Now you're gone, but I still remember,
(fade)
