Like so many nights before I walked the streets alone
When out of nowhere there she was, the only love I'd known
At first she didn't recognize me, then her eyes grew wide
I looked into those eyes and yet I couldn't see inside
Does it mean something to her
Should I go any further
Feeling so insecure
I don't even know for sure if
She remembers
In all the years between I'd never known a love like hers
I'd spent half my life tryin' to get back to where we were
I wanted to just shout it out and tell her how I feel
That nothing else before or since was ever half as real
God knows how I still need her
Why can't I seem to read her
Before I let it show
Somehow I got to know if
She remembers
We were both a little nervous
So much just beneath the surface
So much there that's left unspoken
All that silence never broken
Could she tell my heart was beating
In my head the words repeating
God in heaven let me see
A simple sign that tells me she remembers
Hour after hour we stood talking in the rain
In the end it turned out that our stories were the same
Both of us with someone else, though we know it's not right
Still I can't help thinking we got something back that night
I took her hands in mine
Looked her one last time
She said"I know you do"
Then in my heart I knew that
She remembers
She remembers
