Sweet Memory

Watching the days go by isn't half the fun it used to be
When I could reach out from inside the folds of your skin
Watching the Sun rush by isn't as half as good now it's all silent 'round here
Over the memory - the folds of your skin
And I never wanna spend another day, not a single moment from your side
No, I don't even wanna spend another day, not a single moment from your side
Over the memory - the folds of your skin
Over sweet memory - and I can taste no other
Came running from nowhere fast, came stumbling at me through the dark
Breaking right through my skin - and I can taste no other
Came like lightning in my arms, came tearing through the night
Inside the memory - I can taste no other
And I never wanna spend another day, not a single moment from your side
No, I don't even wanna spend another day, not a single moment from your side
Still running forwards and backwards I'm inside and outside your love
And over the memory - I can taste no other
Over sweet memory - I can see no other
Came like lightning through my heart - folds of your skin
Watching the Sun by - I can taste no other
