There's a memory

That's haunting me

And it's begging to be said

I know it's real

I can almost feel it

But it's locked inside my head



Sweet memory, yeah

Sweet memory, yeah

Sweet memory



There's a pot of gold

That's waiting for me

Somewhere in the past

There's a shadow there

With eyes that sparkle

But it's disappearing fast



Sweet memory, yeah

Sweet memory, yeah

Sweet memory

Oh, I remember



The mind may wander

But it never forgets

I've seen too many silhouettes

To know

Or even care

Oh, I miss you



The mind may wander

But it never forgets

She smoked too many cigarettes

To know

And I remember



This memory

Is killing me

But I can't fail the test

'Cos if I'm good in this life

She'll be waiting in the next
