MEMORIES

Lonely, all by myself, I think & muse
of days and moments just gone by...
old memories rake up & make me cry
I ask the lord, why, but why?

the winter has set, the leaves are strewn
on the roads of my lonely heart
the icy wind makes me shiver
rendering my soul, tearing it apart

Have come alone in this world crying
And alone shall I leave, with only memories
of a loved one, a cherished one,
Who lit my heart and set it flying...

Why do these memories trouble me so
Leaving me restless, my spirit low
Why do these memories rush back to me
And leave me alone, never letting me go

But walk must I, with leaden feet
over the corpse of cherished memories
Life goes on and so must I
Till I am with one who I want to meet.

If not his world, then in the next
I will come and take your hand
I'll fight the world, stand by your side
in whatever place, whichever land

A dreamer am I and so shall it be
That I am left with lingering memories
Memories, sweet and bitter, but all mine
To keep with me till the end of time....
