I'm a ghost
of the old and the new.
And I hope
I can heal all your wounds.

You confide
in me all your desires,
as you cry
on my shoulder for hours.

"Memories, memories, memories,
"watching over me."
Dreams, dreams, dreams -
dream only of me.

I'm a lie
told by your empty room.
I'm a hope
for a good dream come true.

I'm a stone,
untouched by wind and rain.
I'm a friend
who wisely remains the same.

Somehow I will make it better,
someday we will grow together,
somehow we will share one heart,
someday we will be forced to part.

You are lost
in your tears for a soldier.
You're a child
now grown so much older.

"Memories, memories, memories,
"watching over me."
Dreams, dreams, dreams -
dream only of me.
