Buried Memories

Lost inside the past
I'll never be the same

A long time ago
Buried all my dreams
happiness and games
Beneath a tree and it's shade

Under it's shadow
we ran and played
Endless summer nights
Escape the sunlight and the rain

Grew up and moved
Friends did the same
We knew
Life had changed

Years down the line
Came back digging for my time
Tears are falling past my smile
Beneath this tree lay a child

Lost inside the past
Happiness and games
All alone with memories
Of laughter and a time that will never be

Hiding behind a mask
Fake smiles and lies
My tears are falling
Under the tree
In my heart a sadness
That can never be Tears.

I've been looking at old photos
I've been seeing old faces
I've been walking down old paths
Remembering times that have gone by
And I have found you once again
The one that I can't forget
And the tears will keep on falling
As I remember us and the days
that will never be again

Lost inside the past
Happiness and games
All alone with memories
Of laughter and a time that will never be

Hiding behind a mask
Fake smiles and lies
My tears are falling
Under the tree
In my heart a sadness
That can never be Tears.

Beneath this tree
Lost in memories
My tears are falling
Down my face
Hidden under the shade
I'm alone
A lost soul
Beneath a tree
Lost inside the past
I'll never be the same
