Sweet Memories

Sweet memories sweet memories

My world is like a river as dark as it is deep
Night after night the past creeps in and gathers all my sleep
My days are just an endless stream of emptiness to me
Filled only by the fleeting moments of your memories

Sweet memories sweet memories

[ steel ]
She slipped into the silence of my dreams again last night
Wondering from room to room she's turning on each light
Your laughter spills like water from the river to the sea
I'm swept away from sadness clinging to her memories

Sweet memories sweet memories
