G
My world is like a river
C
As dark as it is deep
D7
Night after night the past slips in
G
And gathers all my sleep
My days are just an endless stream
C
Of emptiness to me
G
Filled only by the fleeting
D7 G
Moments of your memory
D7 G B7 Em
Sweet memories sweet memories
G
You slipped into the silence
C
Of my dreams last night
D7
Wandering from room to room
G
And turning on each light
Your laughter spills like water
C
From the river to the sea
G
And I'm swept away from sadness
D7 G
Clinging to your memory
D7 G B7 Em
Sweet memories sweet memories
G D7 G
Memories of the sweetest love I know
