You Remain Songtext / Lyric

You Remain- Willie Nelson & Bonnie Raitt



What do you do with the sands of time

When they carve out lines around your eyes

I can close my fists up good and tight

But I can't hold back the sands of time



What do you do with a memory

That just hangs around and stares at me

I can tear that frame down off the wall

But it won't erase the things I saw



Night and day

Night and day

You remain

You remain






What do you do with old regrets

There's a box full underneath the bed

Just close enough not to forget

But do what do you do with old regrets



There's old house key in a kitchen drawer

To the door I can't unlock no more

Sometimes I hold that key real tight

But what do you do after goodbye



Night and day

Night and day

You remain

You remain



Night and day

Night and day

You remain

You remain
