Marshall Crenshaw - Like A Vague Memory lyrics

rate me

(M. Crenshaw)

You gave me a reason, to laugh when I was down

And you are all I feel for, or care for in this town

Where we are the only two dreamers alive

We've got to leave, we can only survive

Where all of this will be, a vague memory

We see old friends and lovers, with sadness in their eyes

Dark empty places, we don't quite recognize

Yes baby the world that we once knew now seems

to be be fading like scenes from old dreams

It's fading gradually, like a vague memory

A vague memory, may never go away

But it won't bring you down, day after day

For those who can't feel what a young heart can feel

This place holds something familiar and real

But for you and me, it's a vague memory

You gave me a reason to laugh when I was down

And you are all I feel for, or care for in this town

Whenever I hold you I know in my heart

That it soon will move on and restart

And all of this will be, just a vague memory.

A vague memory, may never go away

But it won't bring you down, day after day

For those who can't feel what a young heart can feel

This place holds something familiar and real

For you and me, it's a vague memory

Yes, for you and me, it's a vague memory

Just a vague memory.

A vague memory.
