Alan Jackson’s Remember When
Such a special night!
Watch Alan’s heartfelt performance of “Remember When” in full before he accepted the ACM – Academy of Country Music Awards Alan Jackson Lifetime Achievement Award!
I’m getting way up there in years on this earth, so this definitely grabbed me by the heart. – Be sure to watch the big screen behind him.
Lyrics:
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
LD ONES DIED AND NEW WERE BORN LIFE WAS CHANGED
DISASSEMBLED, REARRANGED WE CAME TOGETHER, FELL APART
AND BROKE EACH OTHER’S HEARTS REMEMBER WHEN NOW, PLAY THAT STEEL GUITAR, BOY.
THAT’S SOME REAL COUNTRY MUSIC RIGHT THERE, Y’ALL.
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
WE’LL REMEMBER WHEN REMEMBER WHEN
REMEMBER WHEN
