Memory Lane
I walk down familiar places
With recollections and dreamy traces
Visions of happy times they abound
I speak to you but you make no sound
Memory Lane
Times and echoes chime of long ago
Daily I try to survive but I miss you so
Memory Lane
Down the street where we had a home
I took a furtive stroll alone
Passed the front door and reminisced
A welcoming step where we once kissed
The sound of joy and laughter I recall
With you by my side I walked tall
Memory Lane
It’s now an empty place of history
Time marches on that’s no mystery
Laughter and joy fears and tears
Emotions are ringing in my ears
Memory lane
Nostalgia seems like a good way to cope
A beacon when you have lost all hope
Memory lane
Daily reminders are always there
A tv show or radio song played on air
Photographs together offer respite
Difficult times are the dead of night
Alone in my grief now we are apart
But I carry you forever in my heart
Memory lane
Everything changes and moves on
Nothing remains it’s the same old song
Here today and gone tomorrow
A whirlwind of elation and sorrow
Memory lane
The hurt and pain you carry and strive
Right here right now you are alive
Memory lane
Memory lane
It lives alone in the past
Moments they dont last
Your existence is fading fast
Memory lane
