Jake Etheridge - The Persistence of Memory Lyrics

Lyrics The Persistence of Memory - Jake Etheridge



I remember driving, and the smell of rain
Your hand was out the window flying like a plane
I remember smiling and staring at your face
Like it could disappear if I blinked or looked away
Old hickory in your sad dress
Won′t let me go just yet
Well I remember sitting on your folks' pull out couch
Kept saying it was cold, I was staring at your mouth
But the more I read by memory, the less I pay it mind
Just a story that we tell ourselves, almost a lullaby
But your eyes and the TV glow
They still won′t let me go
Oh I know we had our reasons why
But I can not hold them in my mind
I know we had our reasons why,
Reasons why
But instead I...
I remember watching you across the room
Yeah I knew all your friends but I did not know you
Then when you said your name, I almost felt sick
The whole world spun around, I loved you so quick
You laughed and turned your head
I can't get free of it
Oh I know we had our reasons why
I know we had some real bad times
But I can not hold them in my mind
In my mind
