  • Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
    Memories, sweetened through the ages just like wine
    Quiet thought come floating down
    And settle softly to the ground

    Like golden autumn leaves around my feet
    I touched them and they burst apart with sweet memories,
    Sweet memories
    Of holding hands and red bouquets

    And twilight trimmed in purple haze
    And laughing eyes and simple ways
    And quiet nights and gentle days with you

    Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
    Memories, sweetened through the ages just like wine,
    Memories, memories, sweet memories Writer/s: Billy Strange, Mac Davis
