Memories floating through my mind
As I turn the pages
And each single thought
A few bring smiles of happiness
And some tears to the eye
The view of my childhood
Seen clearly at last
I remember the house
Where I was born
I remember where I was used to swing
I remember the adventure in the woods
I remember with all
The includes and excludes
I remember my heart
Starts to ache
And then the tears come
When I recall these memories
As I go along life's way
I find they grow more precious still
With every passing day
It's funny
How some things never leave
The corner of my heart
When I am happy
They are there
When I am sad
They are there
When my spirit soars
They are right there
When tomorrow comes
With whatever it may be
I will not regret my yesterday
For it belonged to me
