I Remember The Boy
Nostalgic Melodies of Lost Love
Lyrics
Today I heard them play that song again
Today, I heard a song being played again.
An old familiar strain from way back when
It's a melody that I recognize from a long time ago.
Ev'ry note and ev'ry line
Each musical note and each lyric of the song.
Has always been a fav'rite song of mine
It has always been a favorite of mine.
It used to haunt me so some years ago
It used to deeply affect me years ago.
Reminds me of a boy I used to know
It brings back memories of a boy I was once acquainted with.
And although the melody lives on
Even though the melody continues, the memories of that boy have faded away.
The mem'ries and the boy are all but gone
The memories and the boy himself are nearly forgotten.
And while the song still brings that certain glow
Although the song still evokes a certain positive feeling.
And the words still sing of love I know
The lyrics of the song still talk about love that I am familiar with.
It isn't quite the way it was before
However, it's not the same as it used to be in the past.
I remember the boy but I don't remember the feeling anymore
I remember the boy from the past, but the associated emotions have faded.
The promises we made seem easier then
At that time, the promises made seemed simpler and easier.
As if we knew our love would never end
It felt like our love was eternal and would never cease.
But seasons change and time erases the tears
However, changes in seasons and passing time diminish the sadness.
As swiftly as the rivers disappear.
Just like tears dry up quickly, time also fades memories.
So while the song still brings that certain glow
The song still brings some happiness or nostalgia.
And the words still sing of love I know
The lyrics continue to speak of familiar love.
It isn't quite the way it was before
Yet, it doesn’t resemble the same feelings from the past.
I remember the boy, but I don't remember the feeling
I recall the boy, but the emotions attached to him have vanished.
I remember the boy, but I don't remember the feeling anymore
Though I remember the boy, I can’t recall the feelings anymore.
