Wakin' up in the sand, sunburn on your nose
You scream and squeezed my hand
When your east Kentucky toes hit the Atlantic
Summertime in Brooklyn, mustard on your lip
I knew I loved you by the bottom of the 5th
And I never planned it

A million perfect moments go rushin' through my brain
Our first trip to the ocean, your first time on a plane
When you look over your shoulder, baby you can choose
To remember me however you want to
That's how I'll remember you

The dress that you were wearin', soakin' up the stains
I can still see your mascara, though I can't recall the pain
Of what came after
You were even beautiful tellin' me goodbye
Maybe my version of the truth is just a lie
What does it matter
What does it matter

A million perfect moments go rushin' through my brain
Every time I smell October you're standing in the rain
When you look over your shoulder, baby you can choose
To remember me however you want to
That's how I'll remember you

I forgot the bitter, the winter's just a blur
I savor the sweet as if the summer's all we were
And ever will be, oh, and I still see

A million perfect moments go rushin' through my brain
Every time I touch the ocean, anytime I taste the rain
When you look over your shoulder, baby you can choose
To remember me however you want to
Yeah, remember me however you want to
That's how I'll remember you
That's how I'll remember you
