10cc - Memories lyrics

The summers were longer, they went on forever

Oh and the sky so blue

We never worried about anything

We didn't question the nature of things

We didn't want to know

Talking in whispers and wondering

Oh and I loved you so

Memories, they linger with you but you

soon forget that we started in innocence

Memories, they linger with you but you

soon forget when you're grown

We dream in the night, of mythical days

And nights in white satin

But when the child wakes, the fantasy breaks

We didn't know what the future would bring

We didn't want to know

Something was growing inside me

Oh and I loved you so

Memories, they linger with you but you

soon forget that we started in innocence

Memories, they linger with you but you

soon forget when you're grown

Photographs, faded photographs

Holidays, summer holidays

First love, broken promises

All a play, I'm going back to yesterday

The feeling was stronger, if went on forever

Oh and your eyes were true

We were so wrapped up in all of our dreams

We didn't care what the future would bring

We didn't want to know

Talking in whispers and wondering

Oh and I loved you so......

Memories, they linger with you but you

soon forget that we started in innocence

Memories, they linger with you but you

soon forget when you're grown
