[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Låtskrivare: Alan Jackson (2002-2003); Artister: Alan Jackson (släppt 27/10-2003);
Album: Alan Jackson ‘Greatest Hits, Vol. II’ [2CD], (2003). Countrylistan: #1 den 7 februari 2004

”Remember When” skrev Alan när han såg tillbaka på sitt liv. Ett liv med frun Denise och de tre döttrarna. Han tänkte också på separationen som paret hade under några månader 1998. Separationen kom för att Alan jobbade så hårt med musiken och dessutom hade han varit otrogen. I boken som Denise skrev ‘It’s All About Him: Finding the Love of My Life’ tar hon också upp parets livshistoria och kriser.

Inte nog att låten blev en av de mest välskrivna countrylåtarna enl Billboard så blev dessutom videon, som producerades av Trey Fanjoy, mycket stilfull med Denise och barnen.

Remember when I was young and so were you
And time stood still and love was all we knew
You were the first, so was I
We made love and then you cried
Remember when

Remember when we vowed the vows and walked the walk
Gave our hearts, made the start, it was hard
We lived and learned, life threw curves
There was joy, there was hurt
Remember when

Remember when old ones died and new were born
And life was changed, disassembled, rearranged
We came together, fell apart
And broke each other’s hearts
Remember when

Remember when the sound of little feet
Was the music we danced to week to week
Brought back the love, we found trust
Vowed we’d never give it up
Remember when

Remember when thirty seemed so old
Now lookin’ back, it’s just a steppin’ stone
To where we are, where we’ve been
Said we’d do it all again
Remember when

Remember when we said when we turned gray
When the children grow up and move away
We won’t be sad, we’ll be glad
For all the life we’ve had
And we’ll remember when

Remember when
Remember when
