Memories of You
Years ago we said goodbye
and now I'm left here with nothing to do but cry
and not knowing the answer to the question why
it was hard enough to let you go
but I believed I had learned to make it on my own
so how was I then to ever know
that now I really still do love you so
it took all this time for me to realize
that life had me so hypnotized
now I've broken free of the things that had me dazed
and every night I go back to that place...where
your arms held me tight
everything felt so right
so safe and sure of us that my heart took flight
looking deep into those baby blues
feeling like with you I would never lose
you were my world where I wanted to be
you were the one who could make me see
that it was okay being just me
kissing you was the sweetest thing
and hearing your voice made me want to sing
but here I am today so blue
because all I have now are these memories of you
Thought back then I'd be all right
thought I could find someone else to hold me through the night
and when I did and it lasted for a long while
I still no longer had your smile
so I kept your memory hid
then one day I found that the feelings I had for you still lived
I could no longer control them
I have never felt with anyone what I feel for you
that's how I know that our love was really true
so see I have to find you and just maybe we can begin to
go back to the place...where
your arms held me tight
everything felt so right
so safe and sure of us that my heart took flight
looking deep into those baby blues
feeling like with you I would never lose
you were my world where I wanted to be
you were the one who could make me see
that it was okay being just me
kissing you was the sweetest thing
and hearing your voice made me want to sing
but here I am today so blue
because all I have now are these memories of you
I did move on for some time
now I'm stuck with what we left behind
going out of my mind
because I feel I need you by my side
oh how I wish I could go back in time
all these memories of you keeps you close in my heart
and I know now that we should've never been apart
even though I wouldn't give them up for anything
just having these memories of you will no longer do
I need...you
