| Coming down the highway like a fright
|
| Laughing three o’clock at night
|
| With the desert stars above
|
| Singing June and Johnny’s songs
|
| You felt pretty, I felt strong
|
| And no one called our bluff
|
| And love was a simple song
|
| And I’ll hold you all my life
|
| Like a memory at the back of my mind
|
| Summers come and go so fast
|
| Close your eyes the moment’s past
|
| And another year is gone
|
| We built our castles in the sand
|
| The higher tide had other plans
|
| But I’m still holding on
|
| And love was a fragile song
|
| And I’ll hold you all my life
|
| Like a memory at the back of my mind
|
| Darling nothing stays the same
|
| We were born without a name
|
| And that’s the way we’ll die
|
| But even when the memories fade
|
| What we have is still ingrained
|
| It’s written down inside
|
| And love was our timeless song
|
| And I’ll hold you all my life
|
| Like a child asking why
|
| And I’ll hold you all my life
|
| Like a memory at the back of my mind
|
| Just a memory at the back of my mind |
