[Intro]

No, no...


[Verse 1]

Do you remember the time gone?

Do you remember tears like

Golden streaks across the sky?

Do you remember?

Do you believe it's all been said and done?

Or is it just beginning, ripping, freezing me?

Do you remember the time gone?

Or is it too painful for you?

Do you remember days spent in the sun

The times we shared?

It's crystal clear to me, in memory


[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe I've gone too far

On one of my turns

But no one can take away

What I've already learned

Memory lives in shadow

Nevermore will I blame

And I swear till the end of my days

I'll not forget one moment of pain


[Chorus]

Burn out the time, burn out the tears

Forget who's to blame (Forget)

Hold out your hand and see through the years

You're just a foolish mortal man


[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe I've known too long

Just how abstract we all live

And I've seen how futile anger

Scars all that we believe


[Chorus]

Burn out the time, burn out the tears

Forget who's to blame (Forget)

Hold out your hand and see through the years

You're just a foolish mortal man


[Post-Chorus]

And when there's nothing more left to dream

And nowhere left to wander

The memories will be there for you

To give you peace of mind

Peace of mind


[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe I've gone too far

On one of my turns

But no one can take away from me now

What I've already learned

Memory lives in shadow

Nevermore will I blame

And I swear till the end of my life

I can't forgive your pain


[Chorus]

Burn out the time, burn out the tears

Forget who's to blame (Blame)

Hold out your hand and see through the years

You're just a foolish mortal man


[Post-Chorus]

And when there's nothing more left to dream

And nowhere left to wander

The memories will be there for you

To give you peace of mind

And when there's nothing more left to gain

And no risks left worth taking


[Outro]

The memories will be true

To you...

In memory, in memory...

Memory is alive
