>
> Faded photographs Soft colors on the lines
>
> Images of Life gone past And moments out of time
>
> Where do all these memories Live when you're not here ?
>
> Why do all these memories Get stronger every year ?
>
>
> Chorus:
>
> Some would say : " Your first love is really just your last "
>
> Some would say : " You waste your time living in the past "
>
> Some would say : " Forget your hurt and change your point of view "
>
> But those who say what should be done Were never touched by you.
>
>
>
>
> Far too many years ago I let Love come inside
>
> Little did I ever learn It took me for a ride
>
> I was young and so naieve I had not learned to live
>
> I soon learned that the ways of Love Can take more than they give
>

> Love is such a fragile bird Can fly and it can sing
>
> But held too tight or not at all This bird will take to wing
>
> And all you're left is memories Of love that might have been
>
> A taste of what you cannot have Still lingers now and then
>

> A few old faded photographs Read between the lines
>
> Images of Love gone bad A frozen pantomime
>
> Why do all these memories Live when you're not here ?

> Half-remembered memories Get stronger every year
