MEMORIES

“Come up here my Grandson, sit on my knee and I’ll tell you one”
“Well giddy-up horsy, how fast can you run?
Well do it again Grandpa that sure was fun”

Memories, Memories
Some are kind and happy
Some are mean and scary
Memories, Memories
Such a tiny little head with so much to carry

I’m catching up to you brother
Gave you a head start but now I’m gaining speed
Round the corner I take the lead
Maybe next time little brother you can beat me

Memories, Memories
Some are kind and happy
Some are mean and scary
Memories, Memories
Such a tiny little head with so much to carry

Take my hand sweet Rebecca Lynn
Squeeze it tight don’t let this end
I always heard but I never believed
That the love of a girl could do this to me

Memories, Memories
Some are kind and happy
Some are mean and scary
Memories, Memories
Such a tiny little head with so much to carry

Don’t close your eyes Ma. Don’t close your eyes
So much love to give it can’t be your time
Why must this happen? I can’t say goodbye
But I’ll see you in heaven, will you be looking for me?

Memories, Memories
Some are kind and happy
Some are mean and scary
Memories, Memories
Such a tiny little head with so much to carry
