LYRICS GAME

I remember like it was yesterday

The day we met

And when I confessed to your mom

That you were the one I'd been waiting for

I remember my first protest

Throwing eggs at their windows

I almost got punched in the face

When I ran my mouth a little too much

I clearly remember my first beer

But not the ones that followed

The first time you smiled at me

I remember it like it was yesterday

I remember like it was yesterday

Playing cowboy on my chair

Hitting my backhands with two hands

Crying over the two New York towers

I remember a math problem

With a bathtub to fill

And I remember a little box

Where I piled up all my memories

I remember my grandma's voice

The jars of jam on the table

Monopoly or Scrabble

I remember it like it was yesterday

I remember like it was yesterday

Having Paris at my window

For a Creuse native, that's clear

That it's like switching planets

I remember a medium-scale guitar

And the cross-outs in a notebook

But let's say my first song

I'm still trying to forget it

I remember like it was yesterday

Days of deep anger

When a factory doesn't make it through the winter

And some scumbag runs the world

I remember and I'll remember

To tell my kid

When he asks what it was like

Adjusting his backpack

I'll remember too, of course

That that phone call changed everything

And Alzheimer's can try to hang on

It'll never fall

Into oblivion
