Only Memories Remain Lyrics - The Waterfall - My Morning Jacket

Only memories remain 

Only memories remain 

For a time, there by the sea 

There was only you and me 

In a land that time forgot 

You uttered sweet forget-me-nots 

And you know you never will 

But sometimes life has other ideas 

And though we both know how much it meant 

Now only memories remain 

Only memories remain 

Only memories remain 

Only memories remain, yeah yeah 

Only memories remain 

The names and places have all been changed 

But the identity remains the same 

As time and space do what they will 

The spirit, so vogue, can never be killed 

Our earthly bodies will surely fall 

But the love we share outlives us all 

What's done is done at the end of the day 

But still, those memories remain 

Only memories remain, yeah yeah 

Only memories remain 

Only memories remain, yeah yeah 

Only memories remain 

Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh 

Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh 

Oh 

Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh (Only memories remain) 

Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh (Only memories remain, only memories remain) 

Yeah, only remain, only remain, oh (Only memories remain, only memories remain)
