Hello Everyone! I wrote this song in two hours, so be nice on the critque. I hope you enjoy it :D ------------------------------------------------------------------- Just a Memory Three years have come and gone Yet the pain remains so strong Why did you have to go so young? The water wasn’t that deep But still, you began to sink I couldn’t grasp you, I couldn’t revive you Why didn’t I realize the words that couldn’t be sung? For now, the pain has only begun At last, I tried to say I was “sorry” But the words can’t escape my tongue You’re just a memory Gone so young Some don’t understand But you’re still clear Always in my heart I just want you here Don’t you see? You’re still a part of me Are you in heaven? It’s been too long Seven years have come and gone Yet the pain remains so strong Why did you have to go so young? All I want is just one more night I promise you, I will hold you tight No more pain to pull you away Why does it have to happen this way? No one will ever take your place I close my eyes and all I see… Goodbye my little honey bee You were there; your face so dear No chance to say goodbye It was your turn to fly You’re just a memory Gone so young Some don’t understand But you’re still clear Always in my heart I just want you here Don’t you see? You’re still a part of me Tonight I’ll sit, tonight I’ll wait Here I am; I promise I won’t be late Sixty years have come and gone Yet the pain remains so strong Why did you have to go so young? Our journey had just begun Just a few more days… A couple more months… One more year… That’s all it takes I can’t wait to see you my dear You’d be so proud… Your grandson just turned eight So strong, so true to his faith Four more years and she’ll graduate Your granddaughter, She went on her first date Me? I’m doing alright Another wrinkle won’t bother me You’re just a memory Gone so young Some don’t understand But you’re still clear Always in my heart I just want you here Don’t you see? You’re still a part of me My years have come and gone Yet the pain remains so strong Why did you have to go so young? But I’m ready now, my little honey bee Together forever… Just you and me We’re just a memory ------------------------------------------------------------------- Cheers!! -thevoiceinside

Very good job! Nice words, very well described feelings. Are you a musician too cause that would be awesome if you could sing that song also. One of the best lyrics on the site!!! Nice one!

Keep writing!
