Lyr Req: Remember You (Teresa Jennings)

From: Mudlark

Does anybody know this song? Yesterday I heard for the first time that I'm supposed to be singing it at a Hospice ceremony. I've been assured it's very simple, and that I can pick it up easily...still, I'd like to familiarize myself with it before I have to take the stage! Just words would be helpful, tho melody would be great.

Having never heard it myself I don't know anything else about that lyrics, except that it is appropriate for a ceremony honoring loved ones who have died. Thanks for any help...I've already checked here and can't fnd anything.

Mudlark .... can you give a clue to the lyrics .... there are so many songs out there (under those titles) I'm not sure which ones you are looking for.

There's a Carole King song called "Just One Thing" on her album "Colour of Your Dreams" -- is that the one you want?

Wish I could be more helpful but as I've never heard the song, I haven't a clue, except that it's a simple 3 chord song, easy enough to get an audience singing along with you (haha...but not if you don't know the song!) and I think maybe the clincher line is something like "One thing I can do is remember you." When I pressed the woman who is heading up the ceremony for more info, she just assured me I'd have no trouble picking it up...apparently she'll be singing it too...not even sure about that, tho I think I'm the only one with a guitar.

Volunteer organizations are not known for...organization. But one can hardly complain when they are doing such needed work...

For what it's worth, I think this is probably the song that was wanted. I found the lyrics at http://www.bettendorf.k12.ia.us/hoover/garden.html, a memorial page for a girl who died:


REMEMBER YOU
Teresa Jennings

One thing I can do is remember you.
One place you can be is in my heart.
Even though you're farther now than once upon a time,
One thing I can do is remember you.

Always and forever, I'll remember you.
Always, you will be here in my heart.
Always, I will think of you and once upon a time.
Always and forever, I'll remember you.

One thing I can do is remember you.


[It is a simple song. Teresa Jennings is a songwriter who specializes in songs for children. You can hear REMEMBER YOU at her web site: MusicK8.com.]

I sang this song as a solo when I was in the third grade and never knew who made it! It's good to know the complete lyrics again. I love this song!
