Remember Me

[Verse]

Here we are sitting in the warm sunshine

I'm holding your tiny hand in mine

God knows it ain't gonna be any time

Before you’re grown

But I wasn't young when you come along

And chances are long before that day comes

My time in this sweet old world’ll be done

And I’ll be gone

[Verse]

You’re looking at me, I'm looking at you

And it’s everything a grown man can do

Not to break down and cry like a fool

When you smile at me

I can only that hope I do my best

With whatever time that we got left

And when everything’s done and said

You’ll remember me

[Chorus]

Remember me on some sunny day

When everything’s going your way

Because on the day you were born I prayed

That’s the way it would be

Remember me on a stormy night

When there’s no sign of shelter in sight

And you soldier on through to the light

'Cause that’s all you see, remember me

[Verse]

Now you got angels watching over you

And your mama don’t suffer fools

And there ain't nothing that she wouldn't do for you

I don’t believe

But there’ll come a day when you’re all alone

And you’ll have to stand up on your own

And when it’s muscle and blood and bone

Remember me

[Chorus]

Remember me on some sunny day

When everything’s going your way

Summer day you were born I prayed

That’s the way it would be

Remember me on a stormy night

When there’s no sign of shelter in sight

And you soldier on through to the light

'Cause that’s all you see, remember me
