My world is like a river
C
As dark as it is deep

Night after night the past slips in

And gathers all my sleep
My days are just an endless stream

Of emptiness to me

Filled only by the fleeting
D7 G
Moments of your memory

Sweet memories sweet memories

You slipped into the silence
C
Of my dreams last night

Wandering from room to room

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
