Memories In Flight

from The Noise Around The Mean by The Fires Of

lyrics

I recall the firelight. Taking walks into the night holding tight onto your hand, you let me fall and helped me stand. You told me stories. I believed them all. You gave me strength. You gave me wherewithal. I forget what made you laugh reading out his epitaph, but clear as endless summer skies, still I see your smiling eyes. Walking on, I lost you in the trees. All these dreams and all these memories have cut me down and brought me to my knees. Fly away take wing tonight and day in the moonlight, my memories in flight. Feel as though I’m in a dream. Nothing is quite what it seems. Familiar rooms, familiar halls, familiar paintings on the walls. Empty now, just echoes of the past. Fall away, the days go by so fast. Impermanence, nothing seems to last. Fly away take wing tonight and day in the moonlight, my memories in flight. Houses lined up row on row seems so very long ago. You told me truths. You told me lies. Tell me what it means to die. Don’t you know I’m not prepared for this? I cannot fill this gnawing emptiness. I miss your smile. I miss your goodbye kiss. Fly away take wing tonight and day in the moonlight away take wing tonight and day in the moonlight away take wing tonight and day in the moonlight, my memories in flight.
