All these mixed emotions Leave us empty when they're gone Shared a thousand sunsets And now we have none It's all so much a part of us I remember the looks and smiles The sweet smell of rain And desert for miles Remember the music we listened to The words still linger in my mind And the melody in my heart Still echoes inside It was so perfect for awhile But now it's in the past We want to hold on forever But memories fade so fast The memories fade so fast
The heat awakens me As I lie alone in bed I try to picture your face It flickers in my head This life is just illusion Reality doesn't last long But I still smell the rai And remember the songs I hold them close never letting go Seeking a world I'll never find And the melody in my heart Still echoes inside It was so perfect for awhile But now it's in the past We want to hold on forever But memories fade so fast The memories fade so fast
