Memories

I know, I cannot leave this place for the memories

Things like the way they knew us all over town

We used to walk the streets together

We could be seen

Past shops where people knew us

Yeah, people knew.



I've got to choose between tomorrow and yesterday

Can't stop to think about my life here today



Memories can hang you up and haunt you

All your life, you know

Get so you cannot stay

And yet cannot go



Hey, I could find out where you've gone today

I feel so unhappy

Streets seem so empty now

I want you, I want you with me

Maybe I'll find someone to get you

Off my mind

Take me away from here and leave it

Leave it all behind



Oh, Memories can hang you up and haunt you



All your life you know

Get so you cannot stay and yet cannot go
