I'll Remember You

Lyrics: Bob Dylan
Music: Bob Dylan

Played for the first time by Dead & Company at The Sphere in Las Vegas on 13 June 2024. Thanks to Gene Baran for help with the lyrics Bob sang.

I'll remember you
When I've forgotten all the rest
You to me were true
To me you were the best
When there is no more
You cut to the core
Quicker than anyone I ever knew
When I'm all alone
In the great unknown
I'll remember you

I'll remember you
At the end of the trail
I had so much left to do

And so little time to fail
There's some people that you don't forget
Even though you've only seen them a time or two
When the roses fade
And I'm in the shade
I'll remember you

Didn't I, didn't I try to love you?
Didn't I, try didn't I try to care?
Didn't I sleep, didn't I weep beside you
With the rain blowing in your hair?

I'll remember you
When the wind blows through the piney wood
It was you who came right through
You who understood
Though I'd never say
That I done it the way
That you'd have liked me to
In the end
My sweet friend
I'll remember you

Didn't I, didn't I try to love you?
Didn't I, didn't I try to care?
Didn't I sleep, didn't I weep beside you
With the rain blowing in your hair?

I'll remember you
When the wind blows through the piney wood
It was you who came right through
It was understood
Though I'd never say
That I done it the way
That you'd have liked me to do
In the end
My sweet friend
I'll remember you

In the end
My sweet friend
I'll remember you
I'll remember you
I'll remember you
I'll remember you
