Memory Rain

I never knew how much a man could love a pure beauty like you
Never knew how lost I'd be without your cue
I never knew how much I cared for the moments we created in vain
And now I'm swept, I'm swept away in memory rain

Drifting down a one-direction reverie lane
Holding my yesterdays to unraveling flames
With pockets full of sweet reflections slain
Hey hey, when did all the tarnished sparkles drown
Hey hey, when did the pink paint flake off a dull clown

I'm swept away, I'm swept away
In the coldest wave of memory rain

I never knew how much a man could love a pure beauty like you
Never knew how lost I'd be without your cue
I never knew how much I cared for the moments we created in vain
And now I'm swept, I'm swept away in memory rain

I never knew how much I loved you, how much I cared
How much I longed for yesterday when life appeared okay
I never knew how bitter lonely nights could taste
How my priorities were laced with destructive ego haste
I never knew how every place conjured your face
How haunting cutting words could sway that you did not even say
I never knew how heavy the thought of you would weigh
Now I'm swept away in memory rain

Now I'm swept away in memory rain
In memory rain
