Devendra Banhart - I Remember lyrics
[Devendra Banhart - I Remember lyrics]
I remember a faraway laugh a sweet caress
You'd help me zip up my dress
I remember your arms around my neck
Twenty-one shells wrapped in a nest
Endlessness didn't last
I won't change given the chance
I remember no place for me to hide
Before you came home at night
I remember you turning out the lights
All I ever saw was the red in your eyes
No big surprise happened nearly every night
Your own flesh and blood i did wonder why
I remember not knowing what to say
And how calm you had remained your child
Stillborn with no name
I remember the never ending summer rain ooh
Please don't let what was
Get in the way of what's next
Don't forget that what's to
Come hasn't come yet
You'd help me zip up my dress
I remember your arms around my neck
Twenty-one shells wrapped in a nest
Endlessness didn't last
I won't change given the chance
I remember no place for me to hide
Before you came home at night
I remember you turning out the lights
All I ever saw was the red in your eyes
No big surprise happened nearly every night
Your own flesh and blood i did wonder why
I remember not knowing what to say
And how calm you had remained your child
Stillborn with no name
I remember the never ending summer rain ooh
Please don't let what was
Get in the way of what's next
Don't forget that what's to
Come hasn't come yet
