Remember to Dance

Remember that swing set in Riverside Park Remember the cold wind that blew after dark Remember the day I bought my first guitar Counting coins on the counter It sure took me far Remember the paper crown I always keep Remember the song that Mama would sing When the world was so big and I was so small But Mama, she said, I could conquer it all Remember the moments you don't wanna miss Like holding hands, your very first kiss Like your first broken heart At least you took the chance When life gets you down, remember to dance Remember the nights alone in your room The taste of cheap whiskey, too many Blue Moons Drowning yourself 'til you forget her name Sometimes you'd rather sink than deal with the pain Remember you woke, thinking when will this end It sure hurts like hell when you lose your best friend Broken hearts heal At least you took the chance When life gets you down, remember to dance Oh remember to laugh and remember to cry Remember farewell isn't really goodbye Remember to breathe, to get all you can When life gets you down, remember to dance Oh when life gets you down, remember to dance
