Lyrics Chasing the Mem’ries away
Amid the raindrops of my past
Was some sun that didn’t last,
It came and faded much too fast
The song was sung, the dye was cast.
The melody goes round my head
Words I heard, the things you said.
The waterfall of tears we shed
And friends I loved have turned and fled
Chasing the mem’ries away,
Scared of the price that I pay,
Let them take it, let them break it
I believe but I just cannot Pray.
Chasing the mem’ries away
Laughing at what people say
First they hurt you, then desert you
Then they come back and do it next day.
The child turns quickly to the man
And still he cannot understand
Why nothing goes the way he planned
And why there is no Promised Land
And I’m resigned to acting cool
Thinking big but feeling small
While deep inside I’m just a fool
For no one really knows the rules
Chasing the mem’ries away,
Scared of the price that I pay,
Let them take it, let them break it
I believe but I just cannot Pray.
Chasing the mem’ries away
Laughing at what people say
First they hurt you, then desert you
Then they come back and do it next day.
