[00:42.892]And it's so easy to fall back to the memory of
[00:49.633]And it's easy to recall the good and fall into place
[00:55.018]But you're not easy to love
[00:57.790]I love the memory of...
[00:59.581]I remember your face, I remember your way
[01:04.468]I remember you now
[01:07.948]Part of my existence
[01:09.959]I remember your face
[01:13.439]You came in and got me
[01:15.538]All in a day
[01:17.717]Yeah, all in a day
[01:20.636]I remember your lips
[01:23.195]Do you remember the taste?
[01:25.940]Remember family names
[01:29.430]Your child, my child, our child
[01:31.763]Whitney and Dwayne
[01:34.882]Different to my world now
[01:37.104]Remember the way
[01:40.141]You gripped my hips so tight now?
[01:42.642]Slow up the pace
[01:43.915]Maybe erase, don't remember my words
[01:48.859]Cause it's so easy to fall back to the memory of
[01:54.243]And it's easy to recall the good and fall into place
[01:59.551]But you're not easy to love

[02:04.075]I remember your face, I remember your way
[02:07.796]How could I forget?
[02:08.816]A ballad was born upon a demo of a fly love song
[02:11.996]Didn't take long before the archer with the wings heard it
[02:14.750]Shot us in the heart with a contract, he knew we were a hit
[02:18.047]The right amount of soul with a parallel amount of grit
[02:21.249]But the archer couldn't see the target of departure
[02:24.555]Gave in your pink slip and called it quits
[02:26.886]It's understood you would
[02:28.418]Label me a mate who wronged you
[02:30.404]Cause I kept wanting to feature
[02:32.230]With them other females on they songs too
[02:34.681]Your words spoken in mono for monogamy
[02:37.383]Telling me I had to go cause I chose
[02:40.042]Stereo for stereotypical male biology
[02:42.802]And now I'm left setting traps
[02:44.398]For you to fall in for me again
[02:46.239]Who hates you to tell me
[02:47.343]"Slow up the pace, maybe erase, don't…"
[02:49.501]Slow up the pace
[02:52.255]Maybe erase, don't remember my words
[02:52.995]Cause it's so easy to fall back to the memory of

[03:04.143]But you're not easy to love
[03:06.852]I love the memory of...
[03:09.395]Our last trip to Vegas had me feeling like we had a chance
[03:11.910]But chance just showed up at the wedding
[03:14.724]I guess I didn't read the heading
[03:16.437]"Forgive and won't erase the bitter past"
[03:19.017]But I ain't up for kissing ass
[03:20.549]I bought you everything your pretty feet could fit in
[03:22.738]Put you behind the finest steering wheels
[03:25.089]Fearing you would drive a ***** crazy
[03:27.416]Told you grow up, but ****, you was my baby
[03:29.991]Bits and pieces never made nothing decent
[03:31.797]When I accommodated you, you played me like a stranger
[03:34.687]I remember you now (Accountability is major)
[03:38.839]A part of what I did then
[03:41.114]Remember your face
[03:44.638]Just don't let me trip over memory lane
[03:48.765]Cause time can't be replaced
[03:54.325]And I don't want to stay
[03:57.685]Cause, oh, it's so easy to fall back to the memory of
[04:03.830]And it's so dah-dah-dee-dah
[04:06.833]Dah-dah-dah-dah-dee-dah
[04:09.661]It's so easy to fall
[04:12.029]In dah-dah-dah-dah-dee-dah
[04:16.423]Remember your way
[04:18.966]Remember your way
