When her grandkids come to visit her   Sometimes she forgets their names   Her memory is selective now   Small details just fade away   She looks out the window with a vacant stare   She can't remember what she's doing there      But she remembers love   The blue in his eyes   Hot summer nights   It's like she's memorized his every touch   And how he swept her heart away   Like it was yesterday   She remembers love      On her dresser there's a special box   Where she keeps a faded flower   From a wild field where they made love   And woke each other's first desire   The passion never died for sixty years   And since she's lost him, somethings haven't been so clear      But she remembers love   The blue in his eyes   Hot summer nights   It's like she's memorized his every touch   And how he swept her heart away   Like it was yesterday   She remembers love      Now she comes and goes   And doesn't always know   What day it is, what year it is   Or who somebody was      But she remembers love   The blue in his eyes   Hot summer nights   It's like she's memorized his every touch   And how he swept her heart away   Like it was yesterday   She remembers love   She remembers love
