Memories Lyrics

Memories, precious memories
Memories, precious memories
Memories, precious memories
Memories, precious memories
I recall the times we used to sit for hours
Holding hands, I used to buy you flowers
With our hearts together, nothing mattered
I remember dreams I had, plans we made
For our growing love, girl, to cascade
Oh, but the dreams were all shattered
What can I do now that your love has left my life?
My dreams were cut to shreds by jealous, hateful lies
The knife was made of lies and schemes that were used so well
To turn our growing love into a cold and empty shell
Leaving me with memories, girl, they′re haunting me
Memories of how love ought to be
Oh, precious memories
Oh baby, precious memories
I was a fool, I know
Honey, don't it show?
It can′t help but shine
Here is a grown man crying
Mixed up in confusion
So badly disillusioned
The precious love I had
Slipped away so fast
Oh, oh, love's magic is gone
And misery's a substitute
I just saw myself crying
It didn′t look too cute
I found a single blood
You dropped in your hasty part
I used it to brush my tears
And held it to my heart
Brought back memories
Whoa, it′s haunting me
Reminding me how love used to be
Memories, precious memories
Memories, precious memories
Memories, precious memories
Memories, precious memories
