Years Pass and Memories Fade

So many years pass by And memories of you have faded Not because I’ve forgotten about you But because so much has happened in life I looked at a picture of you and it’s hard because I miss you And I miss your love and talking to you in truth You are not there to share my dreams and worries with You are not there to share achievements and aspirations with I’d have been proud for you too see my kids and how they’ve grown so strong and big And it hurts me inside so much Because now I have lost touch With the memories of growing up And everything you both did for me And though our life was really tough because we never had enough But what you could give me was love and I appreciate that so much I had the best childhood anyone could ask for You gave me freedom and the right to enjoy being a child And I see these as my golden times But I still miss you and it hurts the memories of you have become so hard to recall But as my mum and dad I will always think and pay homage to you Because you created me and gave me life and so I to thank and give gratitude in truth To you my wonderful and loving parents You’re always on my mind.

---Last line, ala Willie Nelson ("You were always on my mind." If you haven't heard it, watch the video. I think you might like the song and the message). Cheers! gershon
