Fading Memories

Sadness finds hopes in the memories it has...

Silently the memories fade
Into the darkened night
You thought that you had it made
And quickly you took flight

I tried to stop you
Tried to make you stay
But I couldn't get through
That neverending blaze

You saw me there crying
And turned the other way
Why wasn't my trying
Working to make you stay

One more night of lonliness
Haunts me once again
You never did confess
Before you turned the bend

Now I lay myself down to sleep
Praying to God to make everything okay
And I know in my heart
He'll deliver you back to me someday

Silently the memories grow
As the peaceful angel sings
All I have to do is go with the flow
And I know that it will bring
You home to me someday....
