I Remember

I begin thinking of you
It's like a stabbing pain
Located in my chest
And everytiem I swear I'm through

And then I remember
I remember all the times we sat together
We used to watch the people pass
and comment on how kids grow up so fast

I begin to miss you
Even though I swore I wouldn't
You're name on my telephone screen haunts me
Why couldn't our dreams come true?

And then I remember
I remember how you felt in my arms
The way you relaxed against me
The way you fit so perfectly

I begin to cry
I'm heartbroken and longing for you
but I'm amazed at my tears
I thought the well  had gone dry

And then I remember
I remember that look in your eye
The way you smiled at me
That made me weak in the knees

I begin to ache
My heart, my soul
My body yearns
and my mind begins to burn

And then I remember
I remember how the slightest touch
Made my stomach stir
And it all just hurts to much

I begin to numb
My mind knows
My heart was fooled
Sometimes I feel so dumb

And then I remember

I could go on for hours
About how you made me feel
With the devil I would have made a deal

I begin to realize
I will love you forever
all these things are true
But you were just an anchor to which I was tethered
