Coming up close
Is it a sparkle in the eyes
Or have we been caught
In reminiscing times?
Who could ever understand
What lives inside
This stupid awkward man?
Can't understand
I don't wanna be just a memory
I don't wanna be just your memory
But a memory's all we can be, oh no
Just a memory, oh no
We tasted failure
Only got ourselves to blame
We went looking for a place
That has no name
No, we never had a golden age
Yeah, we took it on faith
Now it's too late
And it's all changed
I don't wanna be just a memory
I don't wanna be just your memory
But a memory's all we can be, oh no
Just a memory, oh no
We could play another part
Maybe better than this
But for now, it's just a placeholder
I don't wanna be just a memory
I don't wanna be just your memory
I don't wanna be just a memory, oh no
I don't wanna be just a memory
I don't wanna be just your memory
But a memory's all we can be, oh no
Just a memory, oh no
But a memory's all we can be
But a memory's all we can be
Just a memory, oh no
But a memory's all we can be
But a memory's all we can be
Just a memory, oh no
But a memory's all we can be
But a memory's all we can be
Just a memory, oh no...
