Bailey Gray O'Flynn
I Remember
I remember the day we met
And knowing that I would fall for you
I remember staring into your eyes
And the world just disappeared
I remember the butterflies you gave me
And how they never truly went away
I remember feeling I had always known you
And it had only been a week
I remember when you became mine
And I thought I couldn't be happier
I remember the days that followed
And how you proved that I was wrong
I remember when you said I love you
And how you cried when I didn't say it too
I remember how important you really were
And how you smiled at me when I poured my heart out
I remember being scared of how we felt
And running away from the commitment
I remember breaking your heart that day
And convincing myself I did not need you
I remember knowing what I had lost
And thinking I would never get it back
I remember you always being on my mind
And seeing you with others killed me inside
I remember asking for a second chance
And you giving it to me with no hesitation
I remember being overwhelmed with joy
And promising I would never make the same mistake
I remember wanting nothing to come between us
And how people tested us every step of the way
I remember thinking you would give up on me
And that the thought never crossed your mind
I remember smiles
I remember tears
I remember fear
I remember heart break
I remember fights
I remember make-ups
Most of all I remember love
And I would not trade it for the world
