My Favorite Memory

Once in life, you'll meet someone who gives to you
The reason for that life is what some love can do
So now I'm armed for troubled time with all I knew
For I love you, my favorite memory

You gave me something time could never take from me
A light that guides me when life's dark and I can't see
But when I need a hand to hold, you'll comfort me
You'll always be my favorite memory

Your lips were sweet, your arms were warm, I tasted light
You'll have my heart all your dreams each night
Till something comes up yonder now and I must sleep
You'll always be my favorite memory

So now, don't cry, it's not goodbye, it's just so long
I'll take you with me where I travel from now on
But when I close my eyes at night and go to sleep
You're lying there, my favorite memory
