Remember When

Alan Jackson’s Remember When describes his relationship with his wife and how they made it together through very difficult times.

Remember when

I was young and so were you

And time stood still and love was all we knew

You were the first, so was I

We made love and then you cried

Remember when

Remember when

We vowed the vows and walked the walk

Gave our hearts, made the start, and it was hard

We lived and learned, life threw curves

There was joy, and there was hurt

Remember when

Remember when

Old ones died and the new were born

And life was changed, disassembled, rearranged

We came together, fell apart

And broke each other's hearts

Remember when

Remember when

The sound of little feet

Was the music we danced to week to week

Brought back the love, we found trust

Vowed we'd never give it up

Remember when

Remember when

Thirty seemed so old

Now looking back, it's just a stepping stone

To where we are, where we've been

Said we'd do it all again

Remember when

Remember when

We said when we turned gray

When the children grow up and move away

We won't be sad, we'll be glad

For all the life we've had

And we'll remember when

Remember when
