A Blue Flame - Our Memories Fade lyrics

Artist: A Blue Flame

album: What We've Become Is All That Now Remains


In the red cross shop we found a dozen old men's overcoats
The final long-sleeved underwear to tie-dye if we wanted to
That summer I wore espadrilles until they fell apart on me and
I got lost at the festival in tight red skinny jeans
Those were the days when every truth was nothing more than black and white
And come the revolution we all knew which side we would be on
And everyone I knew believed that something would transform the world
If we all shouted loud enough and listened to our dreams
Everyday, our memories fade
What we've become is all that now remains
What we've become is all that now remains
Our memories fade
Our memories fade
What we've become is all that now remains
You fell down an escalator Rushing back from work one night
But later on I kissed you while the snow was gently falling
I kicked your glass of wine across the room and I sent you a card
That said "it's been a pleasure" and you laughed at me for years
We ran to the pavilion to shelter from the thunderstorm
And watched the riders on the field as they kicked the mud into the air
Each moment was a miracle though nothing much was happening
Our son lay sleeping in my arms as you gently dried his tears
Everyday, our memories fade
What we've become is all that now remains
What we've become is all that now remains
Our memories fade
Our memories fade
What we've become is all that now remains
I don't want to leave this place
I don't want to say goodbye
I just want to breathe
I don't want to die
I lay in the garden every day the sun came half way out
And read a pile of books to prove that I could memorize some facts
I opened up an envelope that others thought could tell the future
Even though I knew that everyone was only dreaming
You felt forced by circumstance to live the life they offered you
As you walked into tomorrow hoping for a something
That was more than an illusion and you carried on regardless
For lack of something else to do until you found a meaning
Everyday, our memories fade
What we've become is all that now remains
What we've become is all that now remains
Our memories fade
Our memories fade
What we've become is all that now remains
