Memories are like souvenirs

Memories are like souvenirs

Memory is a wondrous thing
That can take us back in time
To moments that we once knew
In a place that mattered

Memories are like souvenirs
That we carry in our hearts
In moments when we are apart
Our memories will never let us part

The memories of those we love
Remind us of how far we have come
It's how we keep alive
And how we remember everyone

The messages we share
Are like the song of birds
Nothing can take away
The sweet chorus that we heard

Time may try to take away
And keep these memories from us
But no matter how hard we try
The memories live on within us

Let us pause for a moment's rest
And take the time to remember
Paint a picture from the past
Bringing a bridge to the present

Memories protect our life
They help us navigate
The joys of the past
And the pains of the present

And though we can't turn back time
We can turn to our memories
Let them give us solace
Reminding us of what we used to be

Only in our memories
Do we find a place of peace
It's there that we remember
All the love we had to release

In these moments when our heart is heavy
And our minds feel foggy
Our memories will never give up
And our hope will never run low

For in our memories lie the moments
The places and the people
That through all the years of change
Help us remember who we were meant to be.
