Phil Collins – Do You Remember

I love this song. It’s a trip back to a place where love is common. A nostalgic feel to the whole rhythm. The lyrics brings forth my fears and truths. It’s like a care that’s just enough for what you could do. Maybe that’s what we have been here for. Just to care enough and not too much.

Sometimes too much love is a bad thing. Too much happiness is not good as well. We just need a little moderation in our life. That means to be sad or angry for a while, that may help. Just don’t get addicted to that feeling. Trust me, I know how it is. It ain’t easy. I can’t confirm I’ve gotten over it yet, but I certainly will not let this affect me. Even if it does, I guess there’s not much choice anyway.

This lyrics and a couple more songs.. it always makes me think.. to appreciate what we have now, as everything may not be the same soon. You’ll be happy knowing that you were happy then. And all it was is gonna be the reason why you’re happy next time.

I’m a little emotional tonight.. drank a little too much coffee and my brain’s kicking too much. So here I say, Good Night to all.

We never talked about it
But I hear the blame was mine
I’d call you up to say I’m sorry
But I wouldn’t want to waste your time

cos I love you, but I can’t take any more
There’s a look I can’t describe in your eyes
Yes we could try, like we tried before
When you kept on telling me those lies

Through all of my life
In spite of all the pain
You know people are funny sometimes
cos they just can’t wait
To get hurt again

There was always something
More important to do
More important to say
But I love you wasn’t one of those things
And now it’s too late

We never talked about it
But I hear the blame was mine
Id call you up to say Im sorry
But I wouldnt want to waste your time

cos I love you, but I cant take any more
Theres a look I cant describe in your eyes
Yes we could try, like we tried before
When you kept on telling me those lies

Do you remember…?

There seemed no way to make up
cos it seemed your mind was set
And the way you looked it told me
Its a look I know Ill never forget

You couldve come over to my side
You couldve let me know
You couldve tried to see the distance between us
But it seemed too far for you to go.

Do you remember…?

Through all of my life
In spite of all the pain
You know people are funny sometimes
cos they just cant wait
To get hurt again

Do you remember…?

There are things we wont recall
Feelings well never find
Its taken so long to see it
Cos we never seemed to have the time

There was always something more important to do
More important to say
But I love you wasnt one of those things
And now its too late

Do you remember…?
