Memories

haven't seen you in so long

These past few months I've been down to the wire

I thought I'd reach you by landline

But your voice sounds even further than it did before

You tell me that you're gone

Wait, all you lose with age

Are looks and faded memories

Better off just left that way

Time is only on your side

Until it takes your better days

And washes them away

I haven't seen you in so long (so long)

These past few years it seems have treated you well

I thought by now that I'd see it (see it)

But by the tone of your voice I can tell

You don't know me anymore

Wait, all you lose with age

Are looks and faded memories

Better off just left that way

Time is only on your side

Until it takes your better days

And washes you away

Like an avalanche

Or the rising tide

It will take you away

Like a speeding car

Ohhhhh

Wait, all you lose with age

Are looks and faded memories

Better off just left that way

Wait, all you lose with age

Are looks and faded memories

Better off just left that way

Time is only on your side

Until it takes your better days

And washes them away
