THOSE CRAZY MEMORIES

by JOHN TOWNSEND

 

 

 

There's a face inside in my teacup
looking right back at me
making me think
of when I was a kid
and how things used to be

Then a tear destroys the face
as I recall when
and god how much
I wish I could
run to my mothers arms again

chorus 2x
Just crazy memories
stirring up thoughts
bringing me heartaches
as well as things

I could do without

make you wanna shout

wanna shout

------------------

There's a shadow on the wall

think I know the shape

its me when I fell in love

wish I could

go back and fall in love again

 

Then comes the pain

remembering when

fell out of love

and since that day way back then

never seen her again

 

chorus 2x

 

Now I am advanced in my years

should have overcome

the rage and pain

miss all those times

want to live them again

 

Oh let me go

back to then

touch the faces of everyone

remembering how it was

still is inside

 

chorus then repeat last verse

chorus 2x

Reviewed by Ronald Hull
Reviewed on August 23, 2014
At first I thought it was more than one song, and then I realized it was a composite of those "best memories" in a lifetime, like the old Frank Sinatra song, "It Was a Very Good Year," or Luther Vandross's, "Dance with My Father Again."
