Lyrics You Said - Grits

You Said

Remember you said…
Remember you said…
Remember you said, «Just you and me.»…
Remember when you told me that, «I did another man,»
We would be together like Stimpy and Ren — I guess is was a lie,
'cause now you’re with him,
Oh, how you’re gonna break my heart, oh.
Remember you said…
Remember you said…
Remember you said, «Just you and me to be together,»
Remember you said… (I would always be the one you love)
Remember you said… (you and I would always be the one)
Remember you said, «Just you and me to be together.»
Spitting on the love affairs that often make us lose touch from sanity — we got
it,
Try to pry it from a fool’s clutch,
You travel down the road;
they came to Forts many times,
Cohorts in all sizes, all sorts, they synthesise,
Like spackle when it’s mixed, apply to cracks in the bricks,
An inadequate fix for the moment, only the sticks,
You were all I wanted, admirable enough,
Built a castle in my mind, now the house is haunted,
I remain secure, with motives I claim as pure,
It’s a shame we can’t endure 'cause the fame take me on tour,
Trust me, I know what happens: went separate ways,
May I rest for life, got to get it 'fore it gets away.
Remember when you told me that, «I did another man,»
We would be together like Stimpy and Ren — I guess is was a lie,
'cause now you’re with him,
Oh, how you’re gonna break my heart, oh.
Remember you said… (I would always be the one you love)
Remember you said… (you and I would always be the one)
Remember you said, «Just you and me to be together.»
She was my high school sweetie, everything I thought I needed,
Hazel eyes, long hair, butter cream, Puerto Rican,
But it seems I was taken by the beauty of her features,
Hunger of desire for this honey I was keeping,
We conversated, congregated for a time or two,
We graduated, and infatuated love grew,
Started creeping 'til the sun would turn to sky blue,
While mind was sleeping, we would sneaky slip the «I dos»,
Fools in love — we was just fools in love 'til our firstborn switched it up,
Now we’re walking down the aisle like that’s what’s up,
Really thinking to ourselves, like, «Now we’re stuck,»
Then baby girl came and the whole thing changed,
Whole world rearranged, all love turned pain,
Ten years later — divorce and two kids,
And all I got to say is, «Remember we said…»
Remember you said… (I would always be the one you love)
Remember you said… (you and I would always be the one)
Remember you said, «Just you and me to be together.»
I met you on the last day of Cornerstone,
Mute Math is on stage, you on your RAZR phone,
And I wanted to climb the moon 'cause you was all alone,
You looked so beautiful, from your chucks up to your dome,
I said, «Hello, my name is Rickety John, and I’m the bomb, can I put you on my
topper in a conversation?»
You said yes, and my heart swelled… but I tried to hide it,
But secretly I prayed that we’d never be divided,
We dated for a year and went back to Cornerstone,
A little anniversary;
I loved you like home,
I went to get some coffee and I asked you to stay,
I come back, you’re holding hands with Bradley Hathaway,
And I’m asking you…
Remember you said… (I would always be the one you love)
Remember you said… (you and I would always be the one)
Remember you said, «Just you and me to be together.»
I used to wonder: was it me who provoked the breakup?
The perfect, «together forever» relationship to date,
Was I than young and dumb that notice my imperfections would only push you away
'cause you couldn’t carry the weight?
Maybe I’m just too demanding, overbearing, controlling,
I gave you no room to breathe and you wee feeling suffocated, which in turn
made you do what you did,
The final say in the fact: my love for you was no longer reciprocated,
But when you came running back, it was then I realised it had nothing to do
with me;
you just took me for granted,
To be honest, I wouldn’t change a thing,
But just think, if I was a pimp, you would’ve been swiftly backhanded, baby.
Remember you said… (I would always be the one you love)
Remember you said… (you and I would always be the one)
Remember you said, «Just you and me to be together.»
Remember when you told me that, «I did another man,»
We would be together like Stimpy and Ren — I guess is was a lie,
'cause now you’re with him,
Oh, how you’re gonna break my heart, oh,
Remember when you told me that, «I did another man,»
We would be together like Stimpy and Ren — I guess is was a lie,
'cause now you’re with him,
Oh, how you’re gonna break my heart, oh.
Remember you said… (I would always be the one you love)
Remember you said… (you and I would always be the one)
Remember you said, «Just you and me,»
We were meant to be together.
Remember you said…
