Memories In Gold

Memories in Gold (Frankie Laine)

Those melodies that we two crossed years . . .

Have underscored our laughter and our tears

With every phrase we see the . . . past unfold . . .

Like memories in gold.



Some tunes remind us of our childhood days . . .

Sunday afternoons and . . . songs of praise . . .

Reflecting happy times in . . . joys untold . . .

These memories in gold.



From those early nursery rhymes . . .

Through our adolescent times . . .

We find more varied as we went along . . .

And how could we go wrong . . .



And how could we go wrong . . .

With a special song . . .

That would always . . . see us through?



Our lives without them might be .

. . cold and bleak . . . Our favorite song is more

than words can speak . . .

They helped me win your love to heaven hold . . .

Sweet memories in gold.



When the band played rock and roll . . .

And the people called it soul . . .

Our favorite songs were like a tapestry . . .

Edged in melody . . .

They would always be . . . part of you and . . part of me.



There?s little more to add when . . . songs are sung . . .

The words and music help . . . keep us young . . .

And so we?re not afraid of . . . growing old . . .

With memories . . . let?s hear them, please . . .

Sweet memories in gold.
