I tried to write you a letter, but bein' lost may be better I wouldn't know what to say, if I should run into you Billie Jean had a baby, Emmanuel's in the Navy Willie Joe's into Jesus, I'm still into you Memories still carry me away, carry me away with you Memories, they don't need a reason to be Memories, pictures of a season in my life with you I keep remembering you Your mom and dad were evasive They wouldn't tell me where you live They said you left with no trace, not even a clue Said now you're somewhere in China, or maybe North Carolina I keep hoping I'll find you, you'll come out of the blue Memories still carry me away, carry me away with you Memories, they don't need a reason to be Memories, pictures of a season in my life with you I keep remembering you, I keep remembering you
