She
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She came in and she told me.
She said: "I'm leaving you."
I said: "oh, you are?"
"Let me tell you something:
"If you leave, I suggest you stay gone.
"And I mean stay gone forever, you hear me?
Ever! So she left, and then I missed her
I'm not gonna go into why mister,
But there's one particular thing
That she used to do late at night,
I miss that especially.
I can count off, I suppose a thousand things I miss,
But I don't wanna go into it right now.
No, I don't want to count
One, two. One, two, three, four.
Another day I spent alone,
Here lately, I cry and only she'll remember,
Yeah, will she'll remember?
Early mornings, I just suffer through,
Since feelin' empty's what I'm bound to do,
But she'll remember, yeah, oh, she'll remember
When every choice filled with regret,
Even though they haven't yet,
Make her thoughts surrender,
Then she'll remember.
Late afternoon, I curl up tight,
To fight back tears I shed all night,
But she'll remember, yeah, she'll remember
Denote a bad and right a wrong,
Its just a matter of how long,
Will life defend her, then she'll remember.
She'll try, she'll try, but there won't be,
No more escape from her old lonely memories.
Mine may be the only scars that show,
From every break one heart could know,
But she'll remember, yeah, she'll remember
Once all that's left is what's been used,
An' any chance to hide from the truth,
Keeps gettin' slimmer, then she'll remember.
So one more day I'll spend alone,
Like every other, I'll cry and moan,
But she'll remember, yeah, whoa, she'll remember
In early mornings, late afternoons,
Each empty night I'm still sufferin' through,
But she'll remember, yeah, she'll remember.
When every choice filled with regret,
Even though they haven't yet,
Make her thoughts surrender,
Then she'll remember
She'll remember
She'll remember
Yeah yeah, remember
Whoa, she'll remember
She'll remember
She'll remember
She'll remember
Then she'll remember
Then she'll remember
When every choice filled with regret,
Even though they haven't yet,
Make her thoughts surrender,
Then she'll remember
