Good Memories Die With You

Good memories die with you they live on for years
And they have been known for to give rise to tears
For family and friends in the flesh you will never more see
There can be sadness on remembering the good times that used to be
That time is the great grief healer cannot be denied
The parent or sibling or good friend who has died
You do remember them with tears in your eyes
The best of good memories to sadness give rise
The past is a memory of what has been and gone
And life all around you as usual goes on
All we have are photographs and mental images of the good times we've had
And on remembering your good times you can feel quite sad
Your good memories die with you they live on for years
And they have been known for to give rise to tears.
