SOMETHING TO REMEMBER YOU BY

In the corner of my mind,
a café where we dined,
Underneath the amber glow,
where our love used to flow.
Laughter in your eyes,
under those starry skies,
Now I sit here all alone,
in the silence of my home.

CHORUS:
But I have SOMETHING
TO REMEMBER YOU BY,
A token of your love
that never says goodbye.
It's a photograph faded,
a memory that's aged in time.
It's these small things,
keep your memory in my mind.

Walking down our street,
where our hearts would meet,
Echoed footsteps bring a chill,
even though against my will.
The park bench where we kissed,
sits there in an empty mist,
In the breeze, I hear your song,
where has our time gone?

In the quiet of the dawn,
before the world moves on,
I still trace the life we planned,
in the palm of my hand.
Though the years pulled us apart,
you’re still beating in my heart,
In the whispers of the past,
our love was gone too fast.

So here's something for you
to remember me by,
A song of my true love,
that never said goodbye.
In the lyrics of our lives,
as the last chorus draws nigh,
In this song and this song only,
our love will never die.

CHORUS:
But I have SOMETHING
TO REMEMBER YOU BY,
A token of your love
that never says goodbye.
It's a photograph faded,
a memory that's aged in time.
It's these small things,
keep your memory in my mind.
