Warm Memories

Memories have lived long after our spring.
Warm thoughts of your smile glide with an ease. 
Like sunlight swaying on our empty swing,
your sweet laughter floats on every breeze.      
 
Warm thoughts of your smile glide with an ease. 
I long for feelings only young love brings.
Your sweet laughter floats on every breeze,
our tender soundtrack of youth softly sings.

I long for feelings only young love brings
like sunlight swaying on our empty swing.
Our tender soundtrack of youth softly sings.
Memories have lived long after our spring.
