Sit with me awhile,
And hear the tales I tell
Listen to my memories,
And let them ring a bell
Awakening inside of you
A taste of days gone by
Of hopes, and dreams, and
Wishes too
And how we let them die.

Let us reflect on deeds
forgotten:
The silly things we did.
And smile again remembering
the memories that we hid.
For the attics of our minds
Are filled with dusty treasures;
with days of sadness, days
of joy
And long forgotten pleasures.

And whilst remembering we
will see,
that there was much we lost,
that there was really nought
we gained,
Yet there was much it cost
Then maybe we will realize
We need to start anew,
To feel old feelings once
again
And one more time be true.

Come, sit with me awhile
And hear the tales I tell,
Listen to my memories
and let them ring a bell...
