Memories

Tell me, is it true?
Today I heard the news
That you and her had finally said: I do
And funny, yesterday
Seems not so far away
When you were mine
And promised we'd love
'Til the end of time
And, oh, when did the memories die?
For me, the past is still alive
I want things back the way they used to be
And when did the memories fade?
Suddenly taking you away
So far away, too far away from me
I'd like to wish you well
But only time will tell
If my broken heart will never love again
And maybe it's not wise
But no matter how I've tried
Well, I just can't believe
That you've forgot our love so easily
And, oh, when did the memories die?
For me, the past is still alive
I want things back the way they used to be
And when did the memories fade?
Suddenly taking you away
So far away, too far away from me
If we could only have just one more chance
Would you do it all again
Well, I guess it's time to let you go
But there's one thing I've got to know, oh
(I want things back)
And, oh, when did the memories die?
For me, the past is still alive, oh, yeah
I want things back the way they used to be
And when did the memories fade?
Suddenly taking you away, yeah, yeah
So far away, too far away
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
For you're too far away now, baby boy
