Memories of You
Elana James Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Every sunset too
Seems to be bringing me
Memories of you
Here and there, every where
Scenes that we once knew
And they all just recall
How I wish I could forget those
Those happy yesteryears
That have left a rosary of tears
Your face beams in my dreams
Spite of all that I do
Everything seems to bring
Memories of you
Waking skies at sunrise
Every sunset too
Seems to be bringing me
Memories of you
Here and there, every where
Scenes that we once knew
And they all just recall
Memories of you
How I wish I could forget those
Those happy yesteryears
That have left a rosary of tears
Your face beams in my dreams
Spite of all that I do
Everything seems to bring
Memories of you
