Lyrics My Morning Jacket

My Morning Jacket

Only Memories Remain

Only memories remain

Only memories remain

For a time, there by the sea

There was only you and me

In a land that time forgot

You uttered sweet forget-me-nots

And you know I never will

But sometimes life has other ideas

And though we both know how much it meant

Now only memories remain

Only memories remain

Only memories remain

Only memories remain, yeah yeah

Only memories remain

The names and places have all been changed

But the identity remains the same

As time and space do what they will

The spirit, so vogue, can never be killed

Our earthly bodies will surely fall

But the love we share outlives us all

What's done is done at the end of the day

But still, those memories remain

Only memories remain, yeah yeah

Only memories remain

Only memories remain, yeah yeah

Only memories remain

Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh

Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh

Oh

Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh (only memories remain)

Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh (only memories remain, only memories remain)

Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh (only memories remain, only memories remain)
