lyrics

Memories Don’t Fade Away

Your soft kiss in the moonlight
Your floating auburn hair
You were nervous yet willing
Those memories don’t fade away

Picnics on Sunday
Do-Dads washed down with wine
Walks and talks along the seaside
Those memories don’t fade away

chorus:
Memories don’t fade away like some old song
They keep coming back
The good the bad
And haunt you ‘til the dawn

The years go by and the fire stops burning
And the yearning died long ago
The choice was made to stop trying
The memories don’t fade away

And the words we used as weapons
Teardrops roll into your mouth
Bitter truth that it’s over
Those memories don’t fade away

chorus:
Memories don’t fade away like some old song
They keep coming back
The good the bad
And haunt you ‘til the dawn
