My Memory Won't Forget

There's a voice inside my head keeps reminding me of you
And pictures of the life we led are in my mind still plain to view
They say that time can heal all wounds
Well it hasn't happened yet
It's been a long long time and still it's too soon
'Cause my memory won't forget

My memory won't forget the life I had with you
It remembers, surrenders to a love I thought was through
Though the rest of me moved on to a life without regrets
This broken heart lives on because my memory won't forget

I've taken time to redefine my life and happiness
Though I've found grace in many ways
There's still this haunting loneliness
And so each night before I sleep and my dreams to you reflect
I pray to God my soul to keep and my memory to forget

My memory won't forget the life I had with you
It remembers, surrenders to a love I thought was through
Though the rest of me moved on to a life without regrets
This broken heart lives on because my memory won't forget
