Do you ever wonder where
We would be if we'd have tried
A little harder?
It seems like yesterday
That we were making plans
For the future

But it's been so long
Since I have known the truth
Those dreams we've left abandoned
And I'm haunted by your face
And the memory of your kisses
Sweet kisses

Do you remember?
I still remember so much
I remember never feeling so alive
Do you remember?
I still can't forget your touch
We swore that we would never end
We knew our love transcended space and time

These memories slip away
The ghost of what we were
Is fading
But there is no more pain
Which is funny 'cause that night
I was dying
I was dying

Now I don't even recognize
The girl I swore that someday
I would marry
But I can't forget her face
And I can't forget her kisses
Sweet kisses

Do you remember?
I still remember so much
I remember always feeling so alive
Do you remember?
I still can't forget your touch
We swore that we would never end
We'd be endless
Transcended space and time

Do you remember?
I still remember so much
I remember never feeling so alive
Do you remember?
I still can't forget your touch
Or how we swore that we would never be alone

Do you remember?
I still remember so much
I remember never feeling so alive
Do you remember?
'Cause I still can't forget your touch
Or We knew our love transcended space and time

We swore that we would never end
Transcended space and time

Did you remember?
God, I remember so much...

    Probably the most meaningful song to me. Obviously it's about a relationship that ended. This song allows you to look a relationship which ended horrible from a good angle. It allows you to see the granduer of a once existant love, that you thought would never end.

    very meaningful song to me to me it makes me reflect on a certain relationship i had and all the good points of it and it just makes me wonder if the other person remembers it at all or even thinks of it always makes me depressed yet happy all at once

    I love this song too and it is sad...and it does come across to me as a relationship which has ended but doesn't remind me of any I've had...I hope someday to look back on my past relationships and be able to say "I remember..." and have good memories of it without feeling any regret or deep hurtness...

    This song is my last relationship. It is like they wrote the song about it. My ex and I we engaged and then it fell apart. They even mention marriage in this song: "Now I don't even recognize the girl I swore that someday I would marry." It brings me to tears when I hear it because it helps me relive my relationship.

    this reminds me of two things: the incredibly true saying that "Theres a thin line between love and hate" and... i had a relationship not LIKE this, it WAS this... every lyric rings true to me...verbatim... now my ex and i share this larger than life animosity towards eachother and i don't believe that anything can repair the thriving relationship we once had.. the love we had was so powerful and amazing that once it ended...WE each ended, there was no fixing the past (we tried to- could we have "tried a little harder"?) no turning back, for us it was all or nothing. when you love someone that much its dangerous because you put all this trust in them, and when things fall apart, regardless of whose fault it really was, when it comes down to it.. the anger on both sides engulfs you because you're blaming them and blaming yourself and your just so fucking angry you're blinded by it. now i try to erase him from my past and seeing his face now makes me nauseated, because he did change, but i know deep down that i loved him once, dearly, and the love we had was good....aside from all the aftermath and complications. people would give me advice like "its better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all" which i always thought was bullshit but this song reminds me of the good times just a little, a second before they are corrupted by the bad.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
