Memories Keep Coming Back
Memories Keep Coming Back
I looked back upon my life today
I had nothing else to do
There were a lot of doors
Left unopened and not used
But the one I remember most
Was the door that led to you
It had fancy carvings here and there
A nice warm inviting view
Yes, I opened up that door
And we had ourselves a time
You and I together
My heart yours and your heart mine
It was only me the fool
That believed such fantasy
You were never mine alone
It just took some time to see
Ah yes that was the door
That I finally had to close
You had found another
And so the story goes
Yes I closed it very hard indeed
You could almost hear it crack
I saw it fade into the distance
But the memories kept coming back
I couldn’t seem to keep it closed
And there are times I just lose track
And if I am not too careful
The memories just keep coming back
