Yeah, I remember you when
Before you did all that cocaine
And turned into an asshole
Back when you were my best friend
Before it all got insane
And turned into a hassle, yeah
(CHORUS)
Oh yeah, do you remember
What it was to be happy?
Well, I do, yeah, I do
Do you remember when things
Were just all right for a day or two?
And sometimes alone in the dark
I sit around just for a lark
Rememberin the old me
And the old you
Making out in the parking lot
As your mothers saying "what's that smell?"
You were feelin' me up in the back seat
Do you think she could tell?
Stealin pbr at the stop-n-go
You be bonnie and I'll be clyde
You said "what have I done
In the name of fun?"
Oh, it was a beautiful ride
Sometimes
(CHORUS)
Yeah, I remember you when
Before you did all that cocaine
And ruined everything in sight
I'm so sorry I went away
Maybe I could have helped
You out that night
But you'd grown into the kind of man
That took matters into his own hands
Do you remember what it was to be happy?
Well, I do, yeah, I do
Do you remember when things
Were just all right for a day or two?
And sometimes alone in the dark
I wrap my hands around my heart
Rememberin' the old me
And the old you
The old you
I remember well
The old you
I remember well
The old you
I remember you
I remember you
I remember you
