When you look back on times we had
I hope you smile
And know that through the good and through the bad
I was on your side when nobody could hold us down
We claimed the brightest star
And we, we came so far
And, no, they won't forget

[Chorus]
Whenever you remember times gone by
Remember how we held our heads so high
When all this world was there for us
And we believed that we could touch the sky
Whenever you remember, I'll be there
Remember how we reached that dream together
Whenever you remember

When you think back on all we've done
I hope you're proud
When you look back and see how far we've come
It was our time to shine
And nobody could hold us down
They thought they'd see us fall
But we, we stood so tall
And, no, we won't forget

[Chorus]

Yeah, ooo

We claimed the brightest star
And we, we came so far
You know that we showed them all
And, no, they won't forget
Yeah

[Chorus]

Whenever you remember

Ooo, whenever you remember

    Song Meaning:This song is obviously about getting that person that she cares about to remember her and those times they had in the past. In this song its clear he doesnt remember her and she is trying to get him to remember her and everything else.

    General Comment:This was played on my brothers graduation DVD. Great song, simply about looking back on all the memories you've shared with someone - good and bad. Made me think about when i graduate next year...going to miss my friends like crazy when we start on our seperate ways.

    General Comment:I agree with the first 3 posts.
    When I hear this song, I reflect on all those great times I've had with my friends. We don't have much time left together before we have to go our separate ways for good, so we try and make every moment count.
    The title says it ... it's just about awesome memories.

    General Comment:I always saw this song in more of a romantic light.

    Would it not be appropriate to use as a wedding song?

    General Comment:this song brings back soo many memories for me. i love it! i just graduated this past year, and it's hard without all of my high school friends, especially my best friend. so i can definitely relate to this one.
    it's mainly about looking back on all the memories that friends have shared throughout the years.
