With my eyes closed,
I can recall your touch,
I enjoy the memory,
The way we held on,
Held on so tenderly,
I enjoy the memory,
The times our lips met,
And your tongue melted me,
I enjoy the memory,
Recall the passion,
That look within your eyes,
I enjoy the memory...
...
...
...
...The memory is all I have.

Listened to an old VoiceMail,
Just to hear you speak,
That soft spoken tenderness,
With the American twist.

I cried as I heard you,
Tears of sadness,
Tears of joy,
Tears of memory,
Tears of laughter,
Tears of pain,
Tears that flowed like angry rain.

Listened to an old VoiceMail,
Just to hear you talk,
That smooth subtle caressing,
With the American twist.

I try to shine brightly,
Even when I'm blue,
Cause I am determined,
I've made it my aim,
To make them all smile,
To conceal all my shame.

The sun is shining boldly,
The grass glistens in the rays,
I hear children playing,
As they live out halcyon days.

But as I sit in my room,
Alone and watching TV,
I picture that you're here,
Sunbathing in the sun with me.

The night is drawing closer,
The sky shimmers with its stars,
I hear silence ringing,
As I remember loves guitar.

Dug in deep,
But deeper I fell,
There's no coin,
In my wishing well.

Lend to live,
But living is stress,
Golden crush,
Creates hellish mess.

Thinking about kissing you,
Holding you in arms of love,
But instead I'll spend the night alone,
Forced purity of a dove.

Thinking about touching you,
My fingers finding their way,
But instead I'll warm myself with sheets,
Without your presence today.

Tried something new last night,
I had to let go,
Popped the pill,
Mellowed and chilled,
Thought I'd learned to grow.

The drugs came back,
They entered my life again,
I'm afraid of the sin,
Afraid of sliding down like back when.
