Analysis of Remember When
Remember when we used to spend hours talking on the phone?
We'd talk about our hopes and dreams
Why can't I have that again?
Those inside jokes we had
We used to harmlessly flirt
But then one day you started to treat me like dirt
It's the kind you I miss
I remember way back when
You were protective then
Why can't I have that back again?
