I Remember

I remember ~ when we first met.

I remember ~ how you stole every chance you'd get.

I remember ~ how it felt

When you told me you loved me.

I remember ~ how you made me melt

And brought me to my knees.

I remember ~ the look in your eyes

When I told you,"I love you."

I remember ~ that great big smile

When I told you we weren't through.

I remember ~ when you said I'd someday be your wife.

I remember ~ how it brought me to life.

I remember ~ the pain we both went through.

I remember ~ when I let go of you.

I remember ~ being scared to death.

I remember ~ not being able to catch my breath.

I remember ~ letting you go.

I remember ~ that well paved path of destruction I sowed.

I remember ~ the few bitter years apart.

I remember ~ not being able to make a new start.

I remember ~ the fear in my heart

When I told you I never forgot.

I though I had lost everything

For which I had fought.

I remember ~ feeling regret.

I remember ~ feeling pain.

I remember ~ thinking I lost you all over again.

I remember ~ everything that came after.

I remember ~ how there was no more laughter.

I remember ~ giving up ~ thinking it was the end.

I remember ~ that call that began to mend.

I remember ~ how you said nothing compared.

I remember ~ you saying you never forgot what we shared.

I remember ~ the fear that crept in.

I remember ~ thinking : do I give up or do I give in?

I remember ~ trusting in that love

That was so pure and true.

I remember ~ nothing could make me forget.

And no matter what happens,

I could never regret.

You gave me a second chance ~

Helped me remember

What I already knew.

And that love we share

Can never be taken

From me or you.

So as we have let things rest,

Who knows what is to come.

The only thing I am sure of

Is you are my one true love.

So with these words

I am saying goodbye ~ letting you go.

I have to love you enough to let you go.

But know this ~

You are in my heart forever.

I will love you for always.

As long as I'm breathing,

You know where I'll be.

God has a plan for us all

And He will never let me fall.

If it's meant to be,

It will happen.

If not ~

Has yet to be seen.

I know in my heart of hearts

He will guide me.

I remember! ~

Don't ever forget!
