Song#: 22
Album 30) Looking into the future
Name of Song: Things I remember
I remain where I am,
I actually never left,
I can reminisce all I want,
And be oh so bereft.
What I don’t know,
Then why do I look,
Things I remember,
Some people write books.
Pervading my past,
Or just looking in,
Why even bother,
It takes courage to face sin.
Chorus
Things I remember,
Some bad things just loom,
Sins tend to bounce
you right out of the room.
Things I remember,
Some bad things just loom,
Sins tend to bounce
you right out of the room.
______
You know what I mean,
You’ve been there sometime,
Reminded of things
that bring regret to your mind.
Confession is good,
But you must find the first,
Make sure you practice,
Never leave yourself cursed.

Bridge
Things you remember,
Just a flick or a bounce,
Amnesia of lifetimes
that we’re told to denounce.
How comes it’s true,
that we’ve all lived before,
Scared you’ll be called crazy,
Or be viewed as a bore.

We all have done sin,
We do what we do,
But you’ve lived many times,
Sadly still simply you.
We’ve learnt to die blank,
Start all anew,
Things now remembered
At birth do accrue.
Convenient eh!,
Sins are a bitch,
But you did what you did,
And you become you’re own snitch.
Chorus

Some bad things just loom,
Sins tend to bounce
you right out of the room.

Death meets with all,
Face it or not,
But what will you do
if you die and cannot.
What will you do
if you die and cannot.
