"You Remembered Me" lyrics

You Remembered Me

You were young and needed love
And I was wild and free
But every time you said a prayer
You said a prayer for me

Why the ring upon your hand
We vowed fidelity
There were times that I forgot
But you remembered me

There were times that I forgot
But you remembered me

You remembered only
That wedding bells would ring
You remembered only
To count the days till spring

You knew only love and honor
But I couldn't see
I regret that I forgot
Cause you remembered me

I regret that I forgot
Cause you remembered me

I believed that promises
Were made to break apart
But every time I broke a vow
I always broke your heart

So here's to you, God bless you now
Wherever you may be
There were times that I forgot
But you remembered me

There were times that I forgot
But you remembered me

You remembered only
That wedding bells would ring
You remembered only
To count the days till spring

You knew only love and honor
But I couldn't see
I regret that I forgot
Cause you remembered me

I regret that I forgot
Cause you remembered me
