In the deep dark of the night
I often find my soul alight
with mem'ries of a broken past
of times I thought would always last

the beach comes back, water glistening
and there we sat, I listening
to the softness of your voice
when at its sound I did rejoice

or to that special ferris wheel
stuck at the top with a kiss to steal
our eyes enticed time to stop
a kiss impossible to ever top

or to the night our souls a'fire
we loved, embraced, never to tire
when morning's sun unwillingly did shine
still yours was I, as you were mine

or to the day when I took flight
deep-down knowing how bad our plight
the fabric of love beginning to tear
a distance too far for our romance to bear

the day comes back, tears glistening
and there we sat, I listening
to you say we were no more
and in a moment my heart you tore

Tonight's the night a blizzard blows
my soul extinguished, smothered in snow
where once was warmth there is only cold
where once my partner, there is none to hold

So now I do my damnedest try
to carry on since I cannot cry
to an unknown future time will attest
if only I lay these mem'ries to rest
