I long for those days of my childhood memories

Though they seemed long, they flew by so fast

The ones that nurtured my heart and my dreams

*

Where the ones that I loved, were all there with me

Like a movie scene, and we were the cast

I long for those days of my childhood memories

**

I know things weren't perfect, so don't think me, naive

But as long as we were together we helped the hurts pass

The ones that nurtured my heart and my dreams

***

Today I look back and wonder how it could be

I'm missing something I fear, I'll never get back

I long for those days of my childhood memories

****

Give me the treasures that don't cost a thing

That today seem, cannot be amassed

The ones that nurtured my heart and my dreams

*****

I will try to preserve the love that was given to me

The kind my daughters can count on to last

I long for those days of my childhood memories

The ones that nurtured my heart and my dreams

******

A/N

If you are feeling disconnected and want a feel of "remember when" take a peek at this.....
