Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I don't really know how we got here
You wanna be somewhere, but it's not here
Tryna find a new corner of the blue clear sky
Where you can disappear to
You can drive fifty-five by the windmills
See how a little different sun on your skin feels
I don't know what you see through your windshield
But when you look in your rearview
[Chorus]
If you're gonna drink to me, drink tequila
If you're gonna think of me, think of that balcony
On the corner of 5th and Eviston
Like we're back in that beach motel again
It wasn't just wasted time we spent together
We had a few moments worth forever
If you're gonna love me, don't keep it to yourself
If you're gonna hate me, tell me go to hell
If you're gonna forget me, find someone else
If you're gonna remember me, remember me well
[Verse 2]
I guess the heart only wants what the heart wants
Even the best dreams run out of stardust
Fire's gone, but man, we had a spark once
I hold onto that and I hope you do too
Don't know what else to do
If it's over, it's over
But when you look over your shoulder
[Chorus]
If you're gonna drink to me, drink tequila
If you're gonna think of me, think of that balcony
On the corner of 5th and Eviston
Like we're back in that beach motel again
It wasn't just wasted time we spent together
We had a few moments worth forever
If you're gonna love me, don't keep it to yourself
If you're gonna hate me, tell me go to hell
If you're gonna forget me, find someone else
If you're gonna remember me, remember me well
[Bridge]
Somewhere down the road
[Chorus]
If you're gonna drink to me, drink tequila
If you're gonna think of me, think of that balcony
On the corner of 5th and Eviston
Like we're back in that beach motel again
It wasn't just wasted time we spent together
We had a few moments worth forever
If you're gonna love me, don't keep it to yourself
If you're gonna hate me, tell me go to hell
If you're gonna forget me, find someone else
If you're gonna remember me, remember me well
[PostChorus]
Remember me well
I hope you remember me well
Oh, oh
I hope you remember me well
[Outro]
(Oh, oh)
(Oh, oh)
