Memories of You     written and performed by Rick Hayter
I've not been back since I left you
But, seeing I was passing through,
I stop and set the car alarm
Sudden silence, sudden calm

Its been so long since I walked down
The backstreets in this little town
The chipshops and the laudramats
Broken cars and hungry cats

Memories of here, memories of you
Do you think about them every day?
I think about them too

Around this corner was your street
That grimy pub was where we'd meet
Your house was there, just past the lane
An old excitment flows again

I look into the living room
Just make out amid the gloom
The fireplace which used to hiss
The sofa where we used to kiss

Memories of here, memories of you
Do you think about them every day?
I think about them too

Up there's the room you used to rent
Where we lay completly spent
And trembled to the evening train
And heard the drumming of the rain

Its just a place I used to know
You must have left it years ago
I hurry back across the park
With luck I should be home by dark

Memories of here, memories of you
Do you think about them every day?
I think about them too
