Sweet memories, sweet memories My world is like a river, as dark as it is deep Night after night the past slips in and gathers all my sleep My days are just an endless stream of emptiness to me Filled only by the fleeting moments of her memories Sweet memories, sweet memories (Instrumental Break) She slipped into the silence of my dreams again last night Wandering from room to room, she's turning on each light Her laughter spills like water from the river to the sea And I'm swept away from sadness clinging to her memory Sweet memories, sweet memories (Transcribed by Mel Priddle - December 2012)
