I dream of yesterdays gone
Where laughter is heard and love everywhere
Letting me wander half-memories in a happy haze
Dry eyes
Warm cheeks
And in an instant it vanishes
Still smiling
Wake to cruel reality
And onto everything fading brain clutches uselessly
As if pursuing Eldorado or some other impossible treasure

I dream of yesterdays gone
Where laughter is heard and love everywhere
Letting me wander half-memories in a happy haze
Dry eyes
Warm cheeks
And in an instant it vanishes
Still smiling
Wake to cruel reality
And onto everything fading brain clutches uselessly
As if pursuing Eldorado or some other impossible treasure
Because the memories never stay
