Do You Remember?

I wrote this when I remembered a moment with an ex-friend. We each sang a song, and I complemented her on her voice, and then when I sang, she was just like "cool." It hurt.

Do You Remember?

Verse:
It’s been a while since I saw your face.
All those memories, they self-erased.
Don’t know if we passed the test of time.
I hope this isn’t crossing the line

Pre-Chorus:
And the flashbacks come to my mind
I think it might be a sign

Chorus:
Do you remember all when we laid out in the grass?
Do you remember my annoying laugh?
Have you ever thought of when I sang to you for the first time
Now it’s starting to run through my mind
Seeing you here, makes the memories clear
The flames have come back from embers, and I wanna know do you remember?

Verse:
A movie in my head is on replay
Making up for its years of decay
Digging up fossils from ages back
I realized once you left, it got pitch black

Pre-Chorus:
I only wore my best smile when you were there
I didn’t need it any other time

Chorus:
Do you remember all when we laid out in the grass?
Do you remember my annoying laugh?
Have you ever thought of when I sang to you for the first time
Now it’s starting to run through my mind
Seeing you here, makes the memories clear
The flames have come back from embers, and I wanna know do you remember?

Bridge:
Looking back, I don’t know why we were separated
I meant it when I said those three words
I want you back and this is my chance
So I’ll take a leap of faith and say a few words

Extended Chorus:
Do you remember all when we laid out in the grass?
Do you remember my annoying laugh?
Have you ever thought of when I sang to you for the first time
Now it’s starting to run through my mind
Do you remember running through those streets at dusk?
Do you remember the time when we pressed our luck?
Have you ever thought of the reason why we are strangers now?
As I’m seeing more, I would never say a vow.
So now I guess those memories
Are just that, memories
And I won’t ever know if you still remember
Cuz now this flame is an ember
