Memory of a Melody Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We ignite the flame
Create a blaze...
If I aimlessly decide to drift away,
Before I sink,
Will you reel me in?
Then don't let go.
These blessings start in your dreams and heart.
I'm thankful,
For all your love,
Don't be afraid,
Reach further than the stars above.
Watch me, as I'm glowing next to you,
Will you embrace
My inner strength?
Reach for
Then don't let go.
These blessings start in your dreams and heart.
I'm thankful,
For all your love,
Don't be afraid,
Reach further than the stars above.
I listen to you closely as we sing
Our lives away
It gives us strength...
Reach for
Then don't let go.
These blessings start in your dreams and heart.
I'm thankful,
For all your love,
Don't be afraid,
Reach further than the stars above.
