Memories - Deniece Williams

Tell me, is it true?

Today I heard the news

That you and her

Had finally said, «I do»

And funny

Yesterday seems not so far away

When you were mine

And promised we’d love

'Til the end of time

And, oh

When did the memories die?

(Oh-whoa)

For me, the past is still alive

I want things back the way they used to be

And when did the memories fade?

(Oh-whoa)

Suddenly taking you away

So far away

Too far away from me

I’d like to wish you well

But only time will tell

If my broken heart will never love again

And maybe it’s not wise

But no matter how I’ve tried

Well, I just can’t believe

That you’ve forgot our love so easily

And, oh

When did the memories die?

(Oh-whoa)

For me

The past is still alive

I want things back the way they used to be

And when did the memories fade?

(Oh-whoa)

Suddenly taking you away

So far away

Too far away from me

If we could only have just one more chance

Would you do it all again?

Well, I guess it’s time to let you go

But there’s one thing I’ve got to know, oh

Mm-hmm…

(I want things back)

And, oh

When did the memories die?

(Oh-whoa)

For me

The past is still alive, oh, yeah

I want things back the way they used to be

And when did the memories fade?

(Oh-whoa)

Suddenly taking you away

Yeah, yeah

So far away

Too far away

(Oh)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

(Oh-whoa)

For you’re too far away now, baby boy
