This memory starts to slowly fade

-

I hold on, I hold tight
You said, "have faith and trust"
You said, "I won't leave that fast"
Well, maybe you were wrong

Cause your memories are fading
And your fire is dying
I hold on, I hold tight
The warmth, you still have

Please, I beg of you to stay
I have, still, so much to tell you
We have, still, so much to do
Keep everything else at bay

Cause your memories are fading
And your fire is dying
I hold on, I hold tight
The warmth, you still have

The doctor's said they're sorry
As the rain starts pouring
The sky, my eyes, what was the difference?
Both are leaking sadness as time slows down
Maybe you were wrong, maybe you were right

Cause your memories start to slowly fade
As did your trust in Him and faith
But you smiled and held my hand
Said, "I love you very much"

Cause your memories are fading
And your fire is dying
I hold on, I hold tight
The warmth, you still have

Maybe you were wrong, maybe you were right
