Carol Welsman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning | Line by Line Meaning

waking skyes
at sunrise
every sunset to
seemes to be bringing med memories of you
here and there
everywhere
semes that we ones knew
and they all just reacall
memories of you

how i wish i could forget those happiest of years
that have brought a rosery of tears
your face beems in my dreams
in spite of all i do
and everything seemes to bring memories of you

how wish i could forget those happiest of years
that have left a rosery of tears
oh your face beems in my dreams
in spiste of all i do
and everything
its seemes to bring
memories of you
