When You Could Still Remember Songtext
If I could go back in time
I′d rock a little longer on a back-porch night
I'd ask you all about everything
The pictures on your wall and your wedding ring
Sorry I ain′t called, that I ain't been back
I really wanna see you, but then leaving hurts too bad
Guess it makes me kinda angry, and it makes me kinda sad
That I didn't spend more time with you
Back when you could still remember who I am
Oh-whoa-oh
You used to burn your toast while you said your prayers
Yeah, I can still see you sitting there
Now your hair′s more white than it is grey
They got you all cooped up in this strange place
Sorry I ain′t called, that I ain't been back
I really wanna see you, but then leaving hurts too bad
Guess it makes me kinda angry, and it makes me kinda sad
That I didn′t spend more time with you
Back when you could still remember who I am
Green beans and mashed potatoes
Staring out the window
I don't know where your mind has gone
You don′t even recognize me
But I'm happy that you′re smiling
I guess I'll take what I can get from now on
Sorry I ain't called, that I ain′t been back
I really wanna see you but, but then leaving hurts too bad
Guess it makes me kinda angry, and it makes me kinda sad
That I didn′t spend more time with you
Back when you could still remember who
That I didn't spend more time with you
Back when you could still remember who I am
How does it go again? Then sings my soul... How′s it go?
My Savior, come to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art
Okay
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art
Very good! Laughing!
I′d rock a little longer on a back-porch night
I'd ask you all about everything
The pictures on your wall and your wedding ring
Sorry I ain′t called, that I ain't been back
I really wanna see you, but then leaving hurts too bad
Guess it makes me kinda angry, and it makes me kinda sad
That I didn't spend more time with you
Back when you could still remember who I am
Oh-whoa-oh
You used to burn your toast while you said your prayers
Yeah, I can still see you sitting there
Now your hair′s more white than it is grey
They got you all cooped up in this strange place
Sorry I ain′t called, that I ain't been back
I really wanna see you, but then leaving hurts too bad
Guess it makes me kinda angry, and it makes me kinda sad
That I didn′t spend more time with you
Back when you could still remember who I am

Staring out the window
I don't know where your mind has gone

But I'm happy that you′re smiling
I guess I'll take what I can get from now on
Sorry I ain't called, that I ain′t been back
I really wanna see you but, but then leaving hurts too bad
Guess it makes me kinda angry, and it makes me kinda sad
That I didn′t spend more time with you
Back when you could still remember who
That I didn't spend more time with you
Back when you could still remember who I am
How does it go again? Then sings my soul... How′s it go?
My Savior, come to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art
Okay
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art
Very good! Laughing!
