Memories

1. He was the congregation's vagrant
With an unrequited love
When your passion's exaltation
Then finding refuge is not enough
She was the youngest of the family
And the last to be let go
When they decided they would try to make it on their own.

[Chorus:]
Oh Memories
Where'd you go
You were all I've ever known
How I miss yesterday
How'd I let it fade away
Where'd you go?

(Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh)

2. When July became December
Their affection fought the cold
But they couldn't quite remember
What inspired them to go
And it was beautifully depressing
Like a street car named Desire
They were fighting for their love that had started growing tired.

3. When money lost momentum
And the bills were piling high
Then the smile had finally faded
From the apple of their eye
They were young and independent
And they thought they had it planned
Should have known right from the start
You can't predict the end.

[Chorus x2]

Don't fade away!
