Memento Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Got a bee sting on the way back from your house
It was crawling up my leg inside my car
Something 'bout the way I had to pull it out
Never healed quite right and now I've got a scar
[Chorus]
I'm glad it left a mark
I'm glad it left a mark
[Verse 2]
To remind me what it seems like I forget
When I'm drinking or I'm thinking with my heart
Softly saying, "Baby, this is what you get
When you're reckless and you're playing in the dark"
[Chorus]
I'm glad it left a mark
I'm glad it left a mark
I'm glad it left a mark
Got a bee sting on the way back from your house
It was crawling up my leg inside my car
Something 'bout the way I had to pull it out
Never healed quite right and now I've got a scar
[Chorus]
I'm glad it left a mark
I'm glad it left a mark
[Verse 2]
To remind me what it seems like I forget
When I'm drinking or I'm thinking with my heart
Softly saying, "Baby, this is what you get
When you're reckless and you're playing in the dark"
[Chorus]
I'm glad it left a mark
I'm glad it left a mark
I'm glad it left a mark
