I was goin' through the closetBack in my old homeFound my letterman's jacket, so I slipped it onDeep in the pocket, still folded up tightWas the letter you wrote to tell me goodbyeThe minute I saw it I just had to smileIt smelled like old leather, as smooth as a childI took a deep breath, then put it awayThere was no need to read, I knew just what it would say[Chorus]I know the words by heart, I know every lineFrom "this ain't easy" to "you'll get along just fine"I know every comma, every question markNo, I don't have to look, I know the words by heartScenes like home movies flash through my headThe homecoming game, that night on my bedThe words that you wrote still cut me in twoHow you said you still cared but that we were through[Chorus]Ain't it funny how a memory Can play tricks on your mindI don't remember a thing from my classesLetras de cancionesBut I can quote you every lineI took off my jacket and put it awayWith your note in the pocket Like I found it that dayPoured me a beer, then pictured your faceAnd drank a silent toast to things that time can't erase[Chorus:Repeat x2] From Letras Mania
