Memories Lyrics by Mac Davis

Song Painter

>
Memories
Pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories
Sweetened through the ages just like wine

Quiet thoughts come floating down
And settle softly to the ground
Like golden autumn leaves around my feet
I touched them and they burst apart with
Sweet memories

Sweet memories
Of lollipops and red bouquets
And twilights trimmed in purple haze
And laughing eyes and simple ways
And quiet nights and gentle days with you

Memories
I cling to them and tremble to the dawn
My memories
Are all that I have left
Now that you’ve gone

Oh, what would I do without my
Sweet memories…

Sweet memories
Of lollipops and red bouquets
And twilights trimmed in purple haze
And laughing eyes and simple ways
And quiet nights and gentle days with you

Memories
Sadly fragrant flowers turning brown
Memories
Soft and distant showers coming down
Coming down
Sweet memories
Sweet memories
Sweet memories
