They don't understand
the feeling I get
when I hear those songs
the memories that come
remembering the rights
and also the wrongs

They take me back
to a time when feelings
ran strong though my soul
and I stop what I am doing
close my eyes and remember
shuddering with chills like it's cold

They don't understand
that for every time
every moment of strife
there was a song that was playing
to remind me later
of those times in my life
