Sweet Memories
Alicia Grant Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I will keep here with me
And I will wait eternally
For your return so patiently
I'll leave light on if you decide
You need to see me sometimes
I will remember all our laughter
You'll be forever in my mind
Sweet memories, of the days we were complete
And the time we took for granted, is lost and obsolete
I hope the sunshines for you much brighter then the way you'd shine on me you'll live forever here with me
I fall to my knees and I find peace coming over me from this sweet memories. I fall to my knees and I find peace coming over me from this sweet, from this sweet memories
