Lyrics
(v) i remember the way you'd talk
make me feel on fire
i remember the sun go down
as we'd go higher
(pc) i remember the jets from the base
make a sonic boom that night
we got stoned in the hills of colton
watch the stars swell real bright
'til your mother's car drove up
and your face got anxious and tight
(c) i remember you
(v) i remember your sister called
said you wanted to see me
meet in the park we were just thirteen
it seemed i was dreaming
(pc) even then i had a bad feeling
that we weren't quite blessed
now i know the reasons why not
it's not the ones that i would have guessed
walking down your street again
my heart stops in my chest
(c) i remember you
(br) i remember what's it gonna be like
i remember you
i remember the color of midnight
you took me through
(v) you moved to garden grove
and we just faded
went back to school that fall with the kids
that i alway hated
(pc) back to trying to disappear
so no one would stop me to fight
the base closed that early december
no planes to rupture the night
those hills are covered now
with houses and street lights
(c) but i remember you
i remember you
i remember you
