The Lettermen - Traces / Memories (medley) lyrics

Memories Pressed between the pages of my mind Memories Sweetened through the ages just like wine Quiet thoughts come floating down and settle softly to the ground Like golden autumn leaves around my feet I touch them and they burst apart with sweet memories Faded photographs Covered now with lines and creases Tickets torn in half Memories in bits and pieces Traces of love Long ago That didn't work out right Traces of love Of holding hands and red bouquets And twilights trimmed in purple haze And laughing eyes and simple ways And quiet nights and gentle days with you Memories Pressed between the pages of my mind Memories Sweetened through the ages just like wine I close my eyes And say a prayer That in her heart she'll find A trace of love still there Somewhere Memories Pressed between the pages of my mind (faded photographs) Memories Sweetened through the ages just like wine (tickets torn in half) Memories Pressed between the pages of my mind (faded photographs) Memories Sweetened through the ages just like wine
