Tears for Fears - Memories Fade lyrics

There's only need

I love your need

So much I'm losing me

I cannot see the reason for the pain

With hungry joy

I'll be your toy

Just hoping you will play

Without the hope my body starts to fail

Memories fade but the scars still linger

Goodbye my friend

Will I ever love again

Memories fade but the scars still linger

I cannot grow

I cannot move

I cannot feel my age

The vice like grip of tension holds me fast

Engulfed by you

What can I do

When history is my cage?

Look foward to a future in the past

Memories fade but the scars still linger

Goodbye my friend

Will I ever love again

Memories fade but the scars still linger

The more I talk

The more I say

The less you seem to hear

I'm speechless in a most peculiar way

Your mind is weak

Your need is great

And nothing is too dear

For you to use to take the pain away

Memories fade but the scars still linger

Goodbye my friend

Will I ever love again

Memories fade

No don't pretend you can justify the end

Memories fade but the scars still linger

Still linger

Still linger
