holding on to a memory(A.Melleby)
I should have stayed
at least for a while
I should have given you
what I now hold in my hand
a long shot in the dark
it was loud and saw the flash
I don`t know the barrel
all I know is the result
I can see it, feel it and touch it
but it´s not what I had in mind
it`s not what we had in mind
all I do these days
is holding on to a memory
a memory that should have been
something real
I spend my days
holding on to a memory
that could have been
and should have been
you
I should have stayed
at least for a while
I should have given you
what I now hold in my hand
a long shot in the dark
it was loud and saw the flash
I don`t know the barrel
all I know is the result
I can see it, feel it and touch it
but it´s not what I had in mind
it`s not what we had in mind
all I do these days
is holding on to a memory
a memory that should have been
something real
I spend my days
holding on to a memory
that could have been
and should have been
you
