Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I was standin' at the counter

I was waitin' for the change

When I heard that old familiar music start

It was like a lighted match

Had been tossed into my soul

It was like a dam had broken in my heart

[Verse 2]

After takin' every detour,

Gettin' lost and losin' track

So that even if I wanted

I could not find my way back

After drivin' out the memory

Of the way things might've been

After I'd forgotten all about us

The song remembers when

[Verse 3]

We were rollin' through the Rockies

We were up above the clouds

When a station out of Jackson played that song

And it seemed to fit the moment

And the moment seemed to freeze

When we turned the music up and sang along

[Verse 4]

And there was a God in Heaven

And the world made perfect sense

We were young and were in love

And we were easy to convince

We were headed straight for Eden

It was just around the bend

And though I have forgotten all about it

The song remembers when

[Verse 5]

I guess something must have happened

And we must have said goodbye

And my heart must have been broken

Though I can't recall just why

The song remembers when

[Verse 6]

Well, for all the miles between us

And for all the time that's past

You would think I haven't gotten very far

And I hope my hasty heart

Will forgive me just this once

If I stop to wonder how on Earth you are

[Verse 7]

But that's just a lot of water

Underneath a bridge I burned

And there's no use in backtrackin'

Around corners I have turned

Still I guess some things we buried

Are just bound to rise again

For even if the whole world has forgotten

The song remembers when

[Verse 8]

Yeah, and even if the whole world has forgotten

The song remembers when
