Ben Vincent - Sweet Memories (Home version)
Original song written, performed, and recorded by Ben Vincent
Lyrics:
We walked slowly up the grassy hill
The sun balanced on the horizon
I tried to remember the way the light shined through the edges of your hair
I knew this day would come
The air was fresh and crisp like the first bite of an apple
And it carried electricity between us
Grab my arm
We won't be here forever
Although I never want to let go
You know it's not up to me
I watched silently as you filled your bag
With the few pieces of clothing you had left
An empty shelf reminds me of your absence
But it won't be for long
You looked at me with misty eyes of quiet apprehension
"What do we do now?" You said
So we sat
And we waited
And we stared
And kept warm
But the wind was too strong
Grab my arm
We won't be here forever
This thought is all we have
I'll hold onto it as long as I can
