Half Forgotten Memories

Half-forgotten memories of a childhood day

Nothing seemed to matter much

Except which games to play

Did I disregard the rule

That says when you grow up

You shouldn't play the fool

Half-forgotten memories of a show somewhere

Devil cursed brilliance

And we just didn't care

And I never can explain

How we did all that

I'll never be the same

And time goes on just the same

It doesn't really mind

It doesn't know your name

Half-forgotten memories of an absent friend

Always was so full of life

It doesn't make much sense

Although he drove us 'round the bend

The good outweighed the bad

I'm glad you were my friend

Half-forgotten memories of a certain kind

Life was full of happiness

When you were really mine

And I never can recall

What I did or said

It had to end, that's all

And time goes on just the same

It doesn't really mind

It doesn't know your name

It goes on just the same

Just the same
