    'He almost walked into a wall
    Oh, man, she was a sight to see
    And at the party down the hall
    He said, "you are the highest apple in the tree"

    Out the window, in the harbor he saw a little ship
    The moon was worn just slightly on the right
    And they slow danced so the needle wouldn't skip
    Until the room was filled with light

    And I remember you
    And I remember me
    The sunshine walking inside you
    And the man you could see in me

    So I remember me
    And I remember you
    So many beautiful days in a row now
    And the nights were perfect, too

    Hand in hand down a waterslide in Chattanooga
    They did not hide from love, you see
    A winter's plane flight to Aruba
    Where he threw a boombox into the sea

    One day they were cutting flowers for something to do
    On the bank of the road 'neath the cotton woods
    And he turned to her to ask if she'd marry him
    When a runaway truck hit him where he stood

    So I remember you
    And I remember you
    And I remember you

    And I remember me
    And I remember me
    A blackhawk nailed to the sky
    And the tape is from the trees

    Everybody said she needed to move on
    That he was all but lost, so deep was his coma
    When he finally came to the girl he loved was long gone
    She'd married a banker and gone to Oklahoma

    He bought a little land with the money from the settlement
    And even bought the truck that had hit him that day
    He touched the part where the metal was bent
    And if you were there you wouldn't hear him say

    I remember her
    And I remember him
    I remember them
    I remember then
    I'm just remembering
    I'm just remembering
    Just remembering
    I'm just remembering'
