Is it memory or fancy?
The sweet sound of your carefree laughter
Echoing in the silence of my mind
Your smile from another time
A haunting and a solace
The ways in which you cheer
Wordlessly endear
So cynicism died and gone to Heaven
And there saw auburn streaks in the wind
A soft gaze returning
But alas a dream is but a dream
Fate's gleeful whisper to know you're already taken
Ah, would that false hope be unlearned
So the return to memory lane
Where the streetlights are fast fading
To show demons plain and hiding
And they too run in fear and sorrow
When they spy your visage
In the horizon yonder
Where your carefree laughter still resounds
And now knowledge with certainty
That no fancy can be as sweet
As this memory of a memory
The sweet sound of your carefree laughter
Echoing in the silence of my mind
Your smile from another time
A haunting and a solace
The ways in which you cheer
Wordlessly endear
So cynicism died and gone to Heaven
And there saw auburn streaks in the wind
A soft gaze returning
But alas a dream is but a dream
Fate's gleeful whisper to know you're already taken
Ah, would that false hope be unlearned
So the return to memory lane
Where the streetlights are fast fading
To show demons plain and hiding
And they too run in fear and sorrow
When they spy your visage
In the horizon yonder
Where your carefree laughter still resounds
And now knowledge with certainty
That no fancy can be as sweet
As this memory of a memory
