Everyone i meet. brings memories Of
you;
I've tried to keep you from my mind
TriedI Yes, tried the hardest kind!
But as i'm waking. so in my dreams,
Each thought Is just of you, 1t seems!
Though no more will you ever say
The words long to hear,
Though no more will 1 ever kiss
The liUs I thought SO dear.

Sweet days when you were mine;
And have memories Of love,
A love that was divine!
And while my heart is plning now
For no one else but you,
1t only goes to show, somehow,
What memories can do!
