Just a memory 
Of a precious time long gone by
A clear vision of happiness I cry
Just a memory 
When I was fulfilled and whole 
You and me we were on a roll
Just a memory 

You looked at me and my heart did melt
The best that I have ever felt
Your eyes they sparkled with fire 
You ignited my soul with desire
Let me take your hand in mine
In all the world we have precious time

Just a memory
A thought deep inside my head
I hold on to it tightly enough said
Just a memory
I wish I could bring it to actual life
Grant me a miracle 
to end my strife
Just a memory 

The days they come and go
It is the nighttime that I miss you so
At times I think it was all make believe 
I sit quietly alone bereft with grief
For sure I have my sorry tale to tell
No happy ending for me ah well

Just a memory 
Of a precious time long gone by
A clear vision of happiness I cry
Just a memory 
When I was fulfilled and whole 
You and me we were on a roll
Just a memory

Just a memory 
Imprinted on my brain
Just a memory
I will never be the same
Just a memory
