She Remembers Everything
Rosanne Cash
She Remembers Everything Who knows who she used to be before it all went dark Was she like streak of fire painted glass beating heart? All the mirrors all the smoke she’ll read a thousand times Versions of the third degree; yours and hers and mine Chorus: I didn’t know her then my enemy my treasured friend Outside this waking dream she remembers everything I don’t know her now my bitter pill my broken vow This girl this bird who sings she remembers everything There was a time we looked so fine behind a burning wall Of larceny and tenderness we had to have to have it all Pack up all your troubles now pack up your new dress Somewhere there’s a quiet room where thieves like us can rest Chorus
