Close my eyes
Let dark replace the dark
Every day has been like this
Since we were torn apart
Can't forget a single moment
I see them in my mind
Why can't I stop myself
From watching one more time
Chorus:
Good memories they never die
Just always seem to make me cry
Our favorite song on the radio
Or some nameless place we used to go
The perfect pleasure of your lips
Comes crashing through sanity's grips
Crystal clear though time goes by
'Cause good memories they never die
I took for granted
That you would always care
Then one day I turned to see
You were no longer there
Once upon a time I thought
We'd build a life of joy
Now I'm wasting into nothing
Another used and broken toy
Chorus:
Good memories they never die
Just always seem to make me cry
Our favorite song on the radio
Or some nameless place we used to go
The perfect pleasure of your lips
Comes crashing through sanity's grips
Crystal clear though time goes by
'Cause good memories they never die
No they never die
Tugging at what slipped away
Wish that I could figure out
How to make my mind obey
'Cause every shining moment
I cannot turn away from
Weighing on my back like a rock
That I cannot carry on
(spoken)
If I could just forget the good
Maybe then I could survive
If I could forget for just one night
I'd finally let your memory die
Chorus:
Good memories they never die
Just always seem to make me cry
Our favorite song on the radio
Or some nameless place we used to go
The perfect pleasure of your lips
Comes crashing through sanity's grips
Crystal clear though time goes by
'Cause good memories they never die
