ballad of self-rediscovery after a break-up

Lyrics

REMEMBER ME

The worst moment of my life was when he looked me in the eye
and said he didn't love me anymore
Some days I'm still trying to catch my breath
and pick myself back up off the floor
Friends said move on but I didn't know how
Just sat in the kitchen thinking what do I do now?
So alone and lost
Then in the darkness I heard a tiny voice

Remember me, the girl who loves horses
and black and white movies on rainy days
and telling jokes and meeting new people
I'm beginning to see
The way back from him
Is to remember me

Looking back on us I can see
how I let go of little pieces of myself
I was always helping him chase his dreams
while mine got put up on the shelf
Found a yearbook in the closet I'd forgotten all about
and there I am as Dorothy, brick road calling out
"There's so much more to you than him"
and in my heart I hear that voice again

Remember me, the girl who loves magic
and pink cotton candy and Ferris wheels
and dancing barefoot, and talking til sunrise
I'm starting to see
The way back from him
Is to remember me, the girl who loves horses
and black and white movies on rainy days
and holding hands and whispering secrets
Now I can see
The way back from him
Is to remember me
Remember me
