I Only Remember The Good

(album: The Deep End - 2022)

All you wanted was a shoulder to cry on
I guess I kinda blew it with you
We were young and loose
I know that ain't no excuse for what I put you through
I was selfish and wrong and I just wasn't strong
Enough to tell you what I wanted to say
As the world kept turning and time went by
Your memory has faded away

But once in a while
I could be going through some souvenirs from days gone by
Once in a while
If it hits me all at once I just might even cry

Over the love we had and how it all went bad
If I could take it all back I would
'Cause I never remember the really bad times
I only remember the good

Maybe the sun was rising over desert sands
Or the moon had a yellow glow
After all this time you being off of my mind
It's kinda hard to know
But we were watching the waves crashing over the fires
As the tide rolled in from the sea
It was morning or night if I remember it right
It all seems so distant to me

But once in a while
I might be going through those photographs we used to take
Once in a while
When I hear familiar voices my heart might start to ache

Over the love we had and how it all went bad
If I could take it all back I would
'Cause I never remember the really bad times
I only remember the good
I never remember the really bad times
I only remember the good
