I Remember

I remember
Driving you to Texaco
Across town
That cold December night
To get a cup of coffee.

I remember
You talked and talked
'Bout how you cared
About me
And how you kick yourself
Everyday for breaking it off.

I remember
How you said
You weren't happy with her
And how you wanted to
Break it off
Before it was too late
Before she became too attached

I remember
How I had the perfect chance
To tell you how I felt
The ice melting off the windshield
Talking to you on the way back
I could have told you
When you came to say good-bye
When we went to get that cup of coffee.

I remember
That I kicked myself
After you left
Because I kept my mouth shut
To try to keep her happy.
Because she truly loves you
Just like I do.
