Coming down the highway like a fright Laughing three o’clock at night With the desert stars above Singing June and Johnny’s songs You felt pretty, I felt strong And no one called our bluff And love was a simple song
And I’ll hold you all my life Like a memory at the back of my mind
Summers come and go so fast Close your eyes the moment’s past And another year is gone We built our castles in the sand The higher tide had other plans But I’m still holding on And love was a fragile song
And I’ll hold you all my life Like a memory at the back of my mind
Darling nothing stays the same We were born without a name And that’s the way we’ll die But even when the memories fade What we have is still ingrained It’s written down inside And love was our timeless song
And I’ll hold you all my life Like a child asking why And I’ll hold you all my life Like a memory at the back of my mind Just a memory at the back of my mind
