Willie Nelson and Bonnie Raitt – You Remain


Willie Nelson and Bonnie Raitt – You Remain from the album “The Great Divide” (2002).

One of the most beautiful songs ever written! Sung by two of the best as well!

Lyrics:
What do you do with the sands of time
When they carve out lines around your eyes
I can close my fists up good and tight
But I can’t hold back the sands of time

What do you do with a memory
That just hangs around and stares at me
I can tear that frame down off the wall
But it won’t erase the things I saw

Night and day
Night and day
You remain
You remain

What do you do with old regrets
There’s a box full underneath the bed
Just close enough not to forget
But do what do you do with old regrets

There’s old house key in a kitchen drawer
To the door I can’t unlock no more
Sometimes I hold that key real tight
But what do you do after goodbye

Night and day
Night and day
You remain
You remain

Night and day
Night and day
You remain
You remain

Songwriters: Don Poythress / Leslie Satcher / Leslie Winn Satcher
