Only Memories Remain Lyrics
Only memories remain
Only memories remain
For a time, there by the sea
There was only you and me
In a land that time forgot
You uttered sweet forget-me-nots
And you know I never will (you know you never will)
But sometimes life has other ideas
And though we both know how much it meant
Now only memories remain
Only memories remain
Only memories remain
Only memories remain, yeah yeah
Only memories remain
The names and places have all been changed
But the identity remains the same
As time and space do what they will
The spirit, so vogue, can never be killed
Our earthly bodies will surely fall
But the love we share outlives us all
What's done is done at the end of the day
But still, those memories remain
Only memories remain, yeah yeah
Only memories remain
Only memories remain, yeah yeah
Only memories remain
Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh
Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh
Oh
Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh (only memories remain)
Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh (only memories remain, only memories remain)
Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh (only memories remain, only memories remain)
Only memories remain
There was only you and me
In a land that time forgot
You uttered sweet forget-me-nots
But sometimes life has other ideas
And though we both know how much it meant
Now only memories remain
Only memories remain
Only memories remain, yeah yeah
Only memories remain
But the identity remains the same
As time and space do what they will
The spirit, so vogue, can never be killed
But the love we share outlives us all
What's done is done at the end of the day
But still, those memories remain
Only memories remain
Only memories remain, yeah yeah
Only memories remain
Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh
Oh
Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh (only memories remain, only memories remain)
Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh (only memories remain, only memories remain)

I believe this song is about how everything in life comes to an end - including that old, big, sweet, lost love you never forgot.
Nature, people and life itself can erase all the places you've been to, even our lives will be erased one day - but when we close our eyes and remember our sweet love, the spirit of those places - the moments shared remain. Ah, the memories...
"Only memories remain, yeah yeah Only memories remain"
Isn't it amazing how things that are immaterial can make our heart beat so fast? Almost as amazing as loving someone ;)
I've heard this amazing song for the first time today and I know it will be in loop mode for a good while.
