I call to mind our nights till dawn Watching the sunrise Beautiful was that ocean of gold sky We looked into each others eyes with love Our future was a lovely rose unfolding We had many wonderful dreams Our life's had no shadows just open roads And in dreams you exist So sad This love is lost So sad I pray to God with tears So sad Just another empty day And I go to our secret place So sad I loved you, I think My memory is slipping away I call to mind an adventurous boyish man I am still breathless when I think of you Were you a dream? (Were you a dream?) So sad This love is lost So sad I pray to God with tears So sad Just another empty day And I go to our secret place So sad I loved you, I think My memory is slipping away The pages of my life have turned And I wish that our journey did not end Your motorcycle and the road met And I travelled on without you by my side I want to scream but I keep it inside my soul My memory is slipping away So sad This love is lost So sad I pray to God with tears So sad Just another empty day And I go to our secret place So sad I loved you, I think My memory is slipping away __________________________ May 13, 2016 Poetry/Lyric/My Memory Is Slipping Away Copyright Protected, ID 16-789-300-0 All Rights Reserved.
