(I Don't Wanna Be) Just A Memory

Coming up close

Is it sparkle in the eyes

Or have we been caught

In reminiscing times?

Oh, who could ever understand

What lives inside

This stupid, awkward man?

Can't understand

I don't wanna be just a memory

I don't wanna be just your memory

But a memory's all we can be, oh no

Just a memory, oh no

We tasted failure

Only got ourselves to blame

And we went looking for a place

That has no name

No, we never had a golden age

Yeah, we took it on faith

Now it's too late

And it's all changed

I don't wanna be just a memory

I don't wanna be just your memory

But a memory's all we can be, oh no

Just a memory, oh no

We could play another part

Maybe better than this

But for now, it's just a placeholder

I don't wanna be just a memory

I don't wanna be just a memory

I don't wanna be just a memory, oh no

I don't wanna be just a memory

I don't wanna be just your memory

But a memory's all we can be, oh no

Just a memory, oh no

Just a memory, oh no

Just a memory, oh no

Just a memory, oh no

Just a memory, oh no

Just a memory, oh no
