๐ Lyrics
The leaves on that ancient old oak tree
Are starting to turn
And the same shades as the flames of this fire
That I'm watching burn
There's an unfinished crossword
Resting on the arm of this chair
And for the life of me, I can't recall
If I'm the one who left it there
It feels so familiar as I watch you
Walk in the room
And at first, I don't recognize you
But then I damn sure recognize that perfume
And you kneel down beside me
And gently take all of my hand
I say, "Baby, I'm scared
And I'm not sure I know who I am"
Can you help me remember
Who it is that I used to be?
Can you tell me the story of my family
My hopes and my dreams?
Did I try to stand for somethin', would I always fold?
Did I do things when I was young
To be proud of when I was old?
Was I a house on fire or was I just a slow-burning ember?
Could you, please, help me remember?
This ring on my finger is golden
Faded and worn
Like it was forged in the fires of love
And is weathered the storms
I tried to make sense
Of these old photographs on the wall
But they're just faces and places
That I don't know at all
Can you help me remember
Feel like I'm losing my mind?
I know there's a story
It's getting harder to find
Did I protect my children
Stand up for my friends?
How much damage did I do?
Did I ever make amends?
Did I try to make a difference, did I give a damn?
Was I a believer in God and his plan?
Did I light up your life
Like a full moonlit night in December?
Could you please, help me remember?
I need you to help me remember?
Are starting to turn
And the same shades as the flames of this fire
That I'm watching burn
There's an unfinished crossword
Resting on the arm of this chair
And for the life of me, I can't recall
If I'm the one who left it there
It feels so familiar as I watch you
Walk in the room
And at first, I don't recognize you
But then I damn sure recognize that perfume
And you kneel down beside me
And gently take all of my hand
I say, "Baby, I'm scared
And I'm not sure I know who I am"
Can you help me remember
Who it is that I used to be?
Can you tell me the story of my family
My hopes and my dreams?
Did I try to stand for somethin', would I always fold?
Did I do things when I was young
To be proud of when I was old?
Was I a house on fire or was I just a slow-burning ember?
Could you, please, help me remember?
This ring on my finger is golden
Faded and worn
Like it was forged in the fires of love
And is weathered the storms
I tried to make sense
Of these old photographs on the wall
But they're just faces and places
That I don't know at all
Can you help me remember
Feel like I'm losing my mind?
I know there's a story

Stand up for my friends?
How much damage did I do?
Did I ever make amends?
Did I try to make a difference, did I give a damn?
Was I a believer in God and his plan?
Did I light up your life
Like a full moonlit night in December?
Could you please, help me remember?
I need you to help me remember?
