memories of you

i lay in bed thinking of you

i remember your smile

i remember your laugh



but i dont remember you

iv cried a thousand or more tears over you

i dont know where they come from

some times i feel like i have nothing left to say

then a thousands words tumble out for you



i feel like i cant cry any more

then i hear that song or see that picture

and im crying all over again

like iv never cried before



if i had known you was going to leave

i would have told you how much i love you

but they knew,everyone but me understood



i didnt know you was going forever

i was just a child

i didnt know that i would never see you again

if i had known i would have never left your side



he came home and said those words

i didnt understand

and i still dont

no one ever tells me whats going on



i feel like a outsider in my own family

they remember you

they have something i will never have



they have the most special thing they can

they have memories of you
