"I Just Remembered" by Aimée Ringle
(recorded October 20th, 2015)

My dog is always first to know
When I am starting to let go
Of anything I need to keep.
He sees my eyes stuck to the ground,
He feels the weight that pulls me down,
He hears me sighing in my sleep.
But as I'm reaching for my shoes,
He jumps right up because he knows
The bigger world is calling me.
And as we're running up the hill,
I see his joy, I feel a thrill.
Now I remember! Now I see!

I just remembered something
I was so sure I would never forget.
With all the losin' I do,
I'm so glad I haven't lost this yet.

I cross to yours, you reach for mine.
I breathe your bright summer sunshine
You hold my winters in your hands.
And will things end as they began?
There's only so much we can plan
So much we want to understand.
So often, I've pushed you away.
Not knowing how to let you stay
Banking my courage on "Some day"
But I wanna be brave to see what you reflect
Be brave and feel how we connect.
Courage happens now. It's the only way.

You help me remember something
I was so sure I would never forget.
I'm so glad you're in my life
And I have not lost you.

I nod my head to the places in our hearts
That know these things and show these things.
Cuz it's not about all the things that got left out
But what we bring into the light.
What's opening when the time is right.

So now I'm singing this to you
Cuz singing's what I love to do
So maybe something's ringing true.
Cuz things are moving fast and far
And we're becoming who we are
With every little thing we do.
And little things will twist and twine
And weave your story in with mine
And light can shine from where we grew.
And this is all we have to give
And now is all we have to live
And that is all we have to do.

Yeah, I just remembered something
I was so sure I would never forget.
With all the losing I do I'm so glad
I'm so glad I haven't lost this yet!
