William Ritchen - The Memory Remains (Orchestral Version) lyrics

[Chorus] Fortune, fame Mirror vain Gone insane But the memory remains [Verse 1] Heavy rings on fingers wave Another star denies the grave See the nowhere crowd, cry the nowhere tears of honor Like twisted vines that grow Hide and swallow mansions whole Dim the light of an already faded prima donna [Chorus] Fortune, fame Mirror vain Gone insane Fortune, fame Mirror vain Gone insane But the memory remain [Verse 2] Heavy rings hold cigarettes Up to lips that time forgets While the Hollywood sun sets behind your back And can't the band play on? Just listen, they play my song Ash to ash Dust to dust Fade to black [Chorus] Fortune, fame Mirror vain Gone insane Fortune, fame Mirror vain Gone insane Dance little tin goddess (La da da....) [Bridge] Drift away Fade away Little tin goddess Ash to ash Dust to dust Fade to black [Chorus] Fortune, fame Mirror vain Gone insane Fortune, fame Mirror vain Gone insane But the memory remains [Bridge] Ash to ash (ash to ash) Dust to dust (dust to dust) Fade to black (fade to black) The memory remains [Outro] Yeah To this faded prima donna, yeah, yeah, yeah hey [Solo] Dance little tin goddess dance (La da da....) Say yes... or at least say hello (la da da....) Say yes... or at least say hello (la da da....)
