Memories Of You

entry picture

I was walking down a never ending street 
With no destination in mind
My head was in the clouds 
My eyes were open but I was blind
But then I saw a ray of light
I'm not giving up without a fight

Memories of you 
Are keeping me alive
Memories of you 
Will help me survive 
Memories of you 
Help me beat the blues
Memories of you
From many can I choose 

The world is all around me
But it doesn't feel my pain
I keep it all inside me
Then my tears they fall like rain
I know that I am not alone
As I venture into the unknown 

Memories of you
They keep me sane
Memories of you 
Will help me smile again
Memories of you 
Keep me marching on
Memories of you 
When all hope is gone

I wish time would stand still
And I could capture the past
But the days turn quickly into years 
We had a love that was built to last
But then fate it played its hand
And you were taken from this land

Memories of you
Are all that remain
Memories of you
My life will never be the same 
Memories of you
I just can't say goodbye 
Memories of you
I will love you until I die
