Remember Me

The waves on the water are cold today

Crashing under the Pacific sky

But I never cared much for swimming anyway

I'm much too happy staying dry

So I get up and walk the pier

Ain't too crowded before the sunrise

I just smile 'cause after all these years

Thoughts of you are still runnin' through my mind

Please, remember me

As the one who got away

Even though you let me go

Please, remember me

Better than the truth

'Cause that's what I'm doin' for you

Or remember me just like I was

Remember what I wished I could be

Just remember me

Forgetting the rivers we made each other cry

Only remember what I believe

Blocking out the tears you ripped straight from my eyes

Convinced myself it was better than it seemed

Please, remember me

As the one who got away

Even though you let me go

Please, remember me

Better than the truth

'Cause that's what I'm doin' for you

Or remember me just like I was

Remember what I wished I could be

Just remember me

I still remember you out on the other coast

Atlantic skies and that Jersey hope

I moved out here to shake the memories of you

Turns out I'd never have a better view

Please, remember me

As the one who got away

Even though you let me go

Please, remember me

Better than the truth

'Cause that's what I'm doin' for you

Or remember me just like I was

Remember what I wished I could be

Just remember me

Just remember me
