Memories
Like the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories

Of the way we were

Scattered pictures

Of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were


Can it be, it was all so simple then
Or has time re-written every line

If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we or could we


Memories
May be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember

We simply choose to forget

So it's the laughter

We will remember
Whenever we remember
The way we were

The way we were

See I will not replace

Or erase all our memories
Lessons given to us
We learned unselfishly

So take this moment
Take an extra breath
With respect

For our time
Can't rewind
What's just meant to be


But now we gotta move on
Gotta stay strong

Celebrating us all night long
No regrets
Don't forget

That our time together
Was truly beautiful
These memories

Will live forever

Memories

May be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget


So it's the laughter
We will remember

Whenever we remember
The way we were
