Memories

I have all these memories
I hold in my hand
My thoughts say throw them away

Why do i keep them
Why do i care
Sometimes i don't know what to say

It's time to move on
Look ahead, push forward
Then those old memories get in the way

How many times have you loved and lost
How many years are you on your own
What have you gained, what have you lost
Look at the love that you have known

The love has been great, touching you deep
Found love that was awesome and worthy to keep
But sometimes the price has been awfully steep

Those memories you hold in your hand
My thoughts say throw them away
I think I'll keep them another day...
