Memory's Sweet Scent

Sweet scent of lilac as the breeze flows through the windows Setting my senses off, making thoughts now drift off course I think of those many young days when the family was close I smile at the thoughts, memories that rush back with a force Setting my senses off, making thoughts now drift off course My attention now is on those thoughts of many years before I smile at the thoughts, memories that rush back with a force For family, then, was the reason for all the smiles that I wore My attention now is on those thoughts of many years before So carefree, my brother still alive, he was my very best friend I smile at the thoughts, memories that rush back with a force I only wish, no, I pray, that these memories never ever end So carefree, my brother still alive, he was my very best friend I think of those many young days when the family was close I only wish, no, I pray, that these memories never ever end Sweet scent of lilac as the breeze flows through the windows
