Memory

You approach

On tiptoe

Like a melody

But soundlessly

And bitter-sweet,

Almost heavenly

Passing overhead

Filling up my sight, you seem to go but come instead

Hypnotize my heart

Shine for me Memory, my highlight and my gloom

Rising suddenly, then you’re gone too soon

Shine for me, Memory, light of a long gone star

Dark but you shine on

Painfully far

I find I am

Immersed again

In your tempting lie

You prove to be

A symphony

On a stream run dry

Passing overhead

Filling up my sight, you seem to go but come instead

Hypnotize my heart

Shine for me Memory, my highlight and my gloom

Rising suddenly, then you’re gone too soon

Shine for me, Memory, light of a long gone star

Dark but you shine on

Painfully far

Stay another second

Another day

Lead me on for hours

I know you’ll fade away

Stay another second

Another day

I am in your power

If only you would stay

Shine for me memory my highlight and my gloom

Rising suddenly, then you’re gone too soon

Shine for me memory, light of a long gone star

Dark but you shine on painfully far

Dark but you shine on painfully far
