Precious Memories

Nana Mouskouri


Precious memories unseen angels
Sent from somewhere to my soul
How they linger ever near me
And the sacred past unfold

Precious father loving mother
Fly across the lonely years
And old home scenes of my childhood
In fond memory appears

Precious memories how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold

In the stillness of the midnight
Echoes from the past I hear
Old time singing gladness bringing
From that lovely land somewhere

As I travel on life's pathway
Knowing not what the years may hold
As I ponder hope grows fonder
Precious memories flood my soul

Precious memories how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold

In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold
