Lyrics
Memories
There was a time I believed your promises
The fancy dresses and faraway looks
You seemed to look through my soul`s window
But you grinned at me from the grave
Chorus:
Memory you`re just a memory
You were dragging me to my grave
Memory you`re just a memory
You didn't love me it`s all too late
Some separate with many tears
Some leave without a sigh
I just joined all souls in pain
And left all my efforts in vain
Chorus
I travelled many oceans
Dwelling in my own soul
Nowhere I laid my head
No one who shared my tears
Chorus
Some separate with many tears
Some leave without a sigh
I just joined all souls in pain
And left all my efforts in vain
Heroin you`re not my heroin
You were dragging me to the grave
Heroin you`re not my heroin
You didn`t heal me but it`s all too late
