I remember the first time I walk you walk away
Tears came to my eyes
And I still remember that day

It was not ago, maybe last May
The when the bird cries
I remember the first time I watched you walk away

And I remember how I begged you to stay
But it didn’t work, no matter how many tries
And I still remember that day

And I can't give up hope, and so I pray
And its hope that despair defies
I remember the first time you walked away

And I remember what you'd say
And I know they weren't lies
And I still remember that day

It's been years now, I've become old an grey
But i don't believe you've met your demise
I remember the first time you walked away
I still remember that day
