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
