Memories, precious memories Memories, precious memories Memories, precious memories Memories, precious memories I recall the times we used to sit for hours Holding hands, I used to buy you flowers With our hearts together, nothing mattered I remember dreams I had, plans we made For I grew in love girl, but you cascade Oh, but the dreams were all shattered What can I do now that your love is not my life? My dreams were cut to shreds by a jealous hateful knife The knife was made of lies and schemes that were used so well To turn our glowing love into a cold and empty shell Leaving me with memories, girl, that haunted me Memories of how love ought to be Oh, precious memories Oh baby, precious memories Woo, I was a fool I know Honey, don't it show? It can't help but shine Here is a grown man cryin' Mixed up in confusion So bad and disillusioned Because the love I've had Slipped away so bad Oh Oh, now the plan is gone and there's a reasoned substitute I just saw myself cryin', it didn't look too cute I found a single glove you dropped in your haste to part I used it to brush my tears and held it to my heart. Brought back memories, Woah, it's torn me 'Minding me how love used to be Memories, precious memories Memories, precious memories Memories, precious memories Memories, precious memories
