Lyrics
MEMORIES
Words by Helen Faye (ASCAP) Music by Aaron see, Tim Shewmake (BMI), & DeAwna Edwards
Somewhere across this troubled land
You heard the call to lend a hand
You left our dreams and went away
My aching heart let go that day.
The time alone was without end
I missed my lover, my best friend.
Memories, moments linger in one's mind
Memories, passions frozen in time.
Memories, for each lonely day
Memories, for time lost along the way.
After work I'd rush home to your mail
I loved the stories you would tell
With pride and honor you chose to serve
Our country in the Army reserve.
Then came the time of your return
The helicopter crashed and burned,
Memories, moments linger in one's mind.
Memories, passions frozen in time.
Memories, my soul will not forget.
Memories, companion at life's sunset.
The people came so sad the news
With your life you paid your dues.
I watched the plane slowly land
As honor guards took command
They saluted what once was you.
Covered in the red, white, blue.
Memories, moments linger in one's mind.
Memories, passions frozen in time.
All I have of your precious face
Are loving memories that time cannot erase.
Memories, moments linger in one's mind.
Memories, passions frozen in time.
Memories, my soul will not forget.
Memories, companion at life's sunset.
