MEMORY LANE

 

 

I stumbled on this photograph

It kind of made laugh

It took me way back…

Back down memory lane.

 

I see the happiness

I see the pain

Where am I…

Back down memory lane.

 

I see us standing there

Such a happy, happy pair

Love beyond compare

Look-a-there...look-a-there.

 

 

The way you held me…

No one could tell me

That love would die…

Why...oh why.

 

 

Did I have to find this photograph

Thought I had forgot the past

But now I’m slipping fast…

Back down memory lane.

 

 

I feel the happiness…

I feel the pain

Here am I…

Back down memory lane.

 

I’m in the sunshine,

I’m in the rain

Thought it was over

But here I go again.

 

The way you held me

No one could tell me

That love would die

 

 

I don’t wanna go traveling down

Faster than the speed of sound

Back down memory lane.

 

Be still my foolish heart

Don’t let this feelin’ start

Back down memory lane.

 

I don’t wanna go…

Save me…save me…
