I've spent my whole life, looking back

And photographs, were all I had

Embraced the pages of my past

Somehow I knew that couldn't last

I never dreamed, to break away

Was living life just day to day

But then I lost my heart

She broke right though my guards

The making of new memories

And fantasies could start

And when I lost my heart

When I found my guiding star

Suddenly new memories

Could all become a part

Of her and me

I feel like making memories

Still got the books, they've done me well

But I made some room up on the shelve

Unafraid of what lies ahead

We'll make the plans and make them last

I never dreamed, to break away

Kept living life just day to day

But then I lost my heart

She broke right though my guards

The making of new memories

And fantasies could start

And when I lost my heart

When I found my guiding star

Suddenly new memories

Could all become a part

Of her and me

I feel like making memories

I spent my whole life looking back

Now I'm looking forward

Facing the life that's ahead

I'd spent my whole life looking back

But then I lost my heart

I feel like making memories

Then I lost my heart

She broke right though my guards

The making of new memories

And fantasies could start

And when I lost my heart

When I found my guiding star

Suddenly new memories

Could all become a part

I feel like making memories

Of her and me
