Sean Beavan - Memories in F Minor lyrics

[Verse 1] You're the element of surprise that none of us were prepared for The dead body behind the curtain that we couldn't help but stare towards This afternoon, you were an only child and a friend to me This evening, you're not breathing You're just the seed of a memory [Chorus 1] Memories of better days Turn the pages back to a faded photograph of Memories of yesterdays The years'll pa** by but they'll never bring me back to you (They'll never bring me back to you Uh Never bring me back to you They'll Never bring me back to, never bring me back Never bring me back to you) [Verse 2] My memory remembers presently everything from that night My senses always censor any awful images or sights But I didn't get to see through the eyes his poor mother did I just ask why she had to be the one to discover him [Chorus 2] Memories of better days Turn the pages back to a faded photograph of Memories of yesterdays The years'll pa** by but they'll never bring me back to Never bring me back to you Back to you Back to you Back to you [Bridge] All I ask is a better day A better way To carry the weight of you I sing this song to remember the days When I wasn't afraid To carry the weight of you (To carry the weight of you) [Verse 3] To the friend that I love, who has different roots of blood We are the earth that makes mud that comes from rain that made the flood We cycle in and out of what our lives are capable of And through it all, I thank you for teaching me below and above [Chorus 3] Memories of better days Turn the pages back to a faded photograph of Memories of yesterdays The years'll pa** by but they'll never bring me back to Memories of better days Turn the pages back to a faded photograph of Memories of yesterdays The years'll pa** by but they'll never bring me back to Memories of better days Turn the pages back to a faded photograph of Memories of yesterdays The years'll pa** by but they'll never bring me back to Never bring me back to you [Verse 4] I had a friend who was way too young to die I guess d**h is one of those things some people do to life Flight of the Birds (interlude) Well I'll work on appreciating things that I have I promise You can trust me, but I can't trust myself becoming honest Sometimes you are the flight of the birds And other times you're watching the flight of the birds And other times you're yourself Well I'll work on appreciating things that I have I promise You can trust me, but I can't trust myself becoming honest Sometimes you are the flight of the birds And other times you're watching the flight of the birds And other times you're yourself I'll work on, well I work on Well are gonna appreciate, I promise that I have I promise Have but trust me You can trust me Sometimes you are the flight of the birds And other times you're watching the flight of the birds And other times you're yourself
