Favourite memory from Reminiscence by Robyn Norton

My Favourite Memory

Once in life you meet someone who gives to you
A reason for that life and what some love can do
Now I’m armed for troubled times with all I need
Favourite memory

You gave me something time could never take from me
The light that guides me when life's dark and I can’t see
When I’m cold a hand to hold will comfort me
Cos you’ll be there , my favourite memory.

Your lips were sweet, your arms were warm I tasted love
You’ll have my heart in all my dreams each night
Till someone calls up yonder now and I must leave.
You’ll always be my favourite memory.

So now don’t dry, it’s not goodbye, it’s just so long
I’ll take you with me where I travel from now on
Cause when I close my eyes at night and go to sleep
You’re lying there my favourite memory.
Yes you’re lying there my favourite memory.
