memories linger on

memories linger on

when life's dead and gone

my heart starts to fret

because i can't forget

every night it seems

you're always in my dreams

i'm searching all night long

'cause memories linger on

i see your smiling face

feel your warm embrace

these are the things i remember

then the fire dies

and turns to burning ember

oh oh

memories linger on

as the days go by

memories linger on

and now i wonder why

i see your smiling face

feel your warm embrace

these are the things i remember

then the fire dies

and turns to burning ember

oh oh oh oh

memories linger on

as the days go by

memories linger on

oh

i wonder why
