Memory of... (Us) [feat. Estelle & Pete Rock]

And it's so easy to fall back to the memory of

And it's easy to recall the good and fall into place

But your not easy to love

I love the memory of

I remember your face, I remember your way

I remember you now

Part of my existence

I remember your face

You came in and got me

All in a day

Yeah all in a day

I remember your lips

Do you remember the taste?

Remember family names

Your child, my child, our child

Whitney and Dwayne

Different to my world now

Remember the way

You gripped my hips so tight now

Slow up the pace

Maybe erase, don't remember my words

Cause it's so easy to fall back to the memory of

And it's easy to recall the good and fall into place

But you're not easy to love

I love the memory of

I remember your face, I remember your way

How could I forget?

A ballad was born upon a demo of a fly love song

Didn't take long before the archer with the wings heard it

Shot us in the heart with a contract, he knew we were hit

The right amount of soul with a parallel amount of grit

But the archer couldn't see the target of departure

Gave in your pink slip and called it quits

It's understood you would

Label me a mate who wronged you

Cause I kept wanting to feature

With them other females on they songs to

Your words spoken in mono for monogamy

Telling me i had to go cause I chose stereo for stereotypical male biology

And now I'm left setting traps

For you to fall in for me again

Who hates you to tell me "Slow up the pace, maybe erase, don't..."

Don't remember my words

Cause it's so easy to fall back to the memory of

And it's easy to recall the good and fall into place

But your not easy to love

I love the memory of

Our last trip to Vegas had me feeling like we had a chance

But chance just showed up at the wedding

I guess I didn't read the heading "forgive and won't erase the bitter past"

But i ain't up for kissing ass

I bought you everything your pretty feet could fit in

Put you behind the finest steering wheels

Fearing you would drive a **** crazy

Told you grow up, but shit, you was my baby

Bits and pieces never made nothing decent

When i accommodated you, you played me like a stranger

I remember you now

(Accountability is major)

A part of what I did then

Remember your face

Just don't let me trip over memory lane

Cause time can't be replaced

And I don't want to stay

Cause, oh, it's so easy to fall back to the memory of

And it's so dah-dah-dee-dah-dah-dah-dah-dah-dee-dah

It's so easy to fall

In dah-dah-dah-dah-dee-dah

Remember your way

Remember your way
