Too Many Memories

I remember this town with this boy by my side
It was a peace seldom felt in this day and time
And it gets melancholy every now and again
When you let your mind go and it drifts way back when

Life plays it's tricks, some are cruel but fair
And even a fool can pretend he don't care
And there's too many memories for one heart to hold
Once a future so bright now seems distant and cold
And the shadows grow longer and your eyes look so old
When there's too many memories for one heart to hold

But there are those moments and they just never fade
Like the look in his eyes and the way the light played
God moved in that moment and the angels all cried
And they gave you a memory that you'll have till you die
And the lesson you learned you don't dare to forget
What makes you grow old is replacing hope with regret

And there's too many memories for one heart to hold
Once a future so bright now seems distant and cold
And the shadows grow longer and your eyes look so old
When there's too many memories for one heart to hold
For one heart to hold

There's too many memories for one heart to hold
There's too many memories for one heart to hold
I remember this time
