She Remembers Everything

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Rosanne Cash] Who knows who she used to be before it all went dark Was she like a streak of fire, a painted glass, a beating heart? All the mirrors, all the smoke, she'll read a thousand times Versions of the third degree; yours and hers and mine [Chorus: Rosanne Cash and Sam Phillips] I didn't know her then My enemy, my treasured friend Outside this waking dream She remembers everything I don't know her now My bitter pill, my broken vow This girl, this bird who sings She remembers everything [Verse 2: Rosanne Cash and Sam Phillips] There was a time we looked so fine behind a burning wall Of larceny and tenderness we had to have it all Pack up all your troubles now, pack up your new dress Somewhere there's a quiet room where thieves like us can rest [Chorus: Rosanne Cash and Sam Phillips] I didn't know her then My enemy, my treasured friend Outside this waking dream She remembers everything I don't know her now My bitter pill, my broken vow This girl, this bird who sings She remembers everything [Instrumental] [Chorus: Rosanne Cash and Sam Phillips] I didn't know her then My enemy, my treasured friend Outside this waking dream She remembers everything I don't know her now My bitter pill, my broken vow This girl, this bird who sings She remembers everything She remembers everything
