Memories hold me back
Like invisible chains around my veins
All that remains in my hands are shards
Of this past that I cannot forget
Even when the world tells me to move on
Memories hold me back
I walk alone in my sorrow
I can still hear in the distance
The faded promises
Tonight I'll let them flow
The tears of a man who loved you
I left my dreams at the edge of my memory
But your absence brings them back to me every time
If tomorrow has nothing left to offer me
I'll let the night cover me
Memories of the past
Every minute speaks to me of you
Every day is dressed in memories
If I had known that the past bleeds
I would have kept fewer dreams
Fewer sorrows
But we don't choose when the heart cries through tomorrow
Even when the world tells me to go further
Memories hold me back
I walk alone in my sorrow
I can still hear in the distance
The faded promises
Tonight I'll let them flow
The tears of a man who loved you
Even when the world tells me to go further
Memories hold me back
I walk alone in my sorrow
I can still hear in the distance
The faded promises
Tonight I'll let them flow
The tears of a man who loved you
