Memories

Memories are something of the past
Thoughts of things that didn’t last
You remember friends
And you cherish them
They’re the last thing on earth
You’d want to lose

You always use to have good times
And they never cost you a dime
You went here and there
Played your games and changed your hair
And did things only you would ever know

But you’ve got yourself some memories
Of people, places and things you’ve seen
Don’t let go
You don’t wish to sow
A new lifetime’s crop of memories

Memories are something of the past
Thoughts of things that didn’t last
Those dear the most
You hold so close
They’re the last thing on earth you’ll ever lose…
