Try To Remember Lyrics

Roy Orbison

Words and music by tom jones and harvey schmidt from the musical theFantasticksTry to remember the kind of septemberWhen life was slow and oh so mellowTry to remember the kind of septemberWhen grass was green and grain so yellowTry to remember the kind of septemberWhen you were a young and a callow fellowTry to remember and if you rememberThen follow--follow, oh-ohTry to remember when life was so tenderThat no one wept except the willowTry to remember when life was so tenderThat dreams were kept beside your pillowTry to remember when life was so tenderThat love was an ember about to billowTry to remember and if you rememberThen follow--follow, oh-ohDeep in december it's nice to rememberAlthough you know the snow will followDeep in december it's nice to rememberWithout a hurt, the heart is hollowDeep in december it's nice to rememberThe fire of september that made you mellowDeep in december our hearts should rememberThen follow--follow, oh-ohFollow, oh-oh
