How You Remember It

(album: North Hollywood Shootout - 2008)

So I thought about my lifetime
How the days they are confused
As the moments they do roll by
Only some will follow you

They're the same every day
Think about what we do
If you take the time to look well
Any one of them could chase you

That's how you remember it
It'll find you soon
That's how you remember it
What will be the truth

From out behind the shadows
Every moment I have known
Like catching that first firefly
In a jar when I was back home

Summer rain on windowpane
The way she looked that night
And every second after
Going to radiate the light

That's how you remember it
It'll find you soon
That's how you remember it
What will be the truth

Looking at my photograph
Staring back 20 years ago
The man I am, the boy I was
The things I still don't know

That's how you remember it
It'll find you soon
That's how you remember it
What will be the truth

No matter how you remember it
It'll find you soon
No matter how you remember it
That will be the truth
