I don’t get to pick what comes and goes
Somethings stick and others just flow
Out of the river of mind, lost to time
I wonder if these precious moments will remain mine
It’s not up to me. No picking and choosing
At some point I may end up losing
The special events that happened this day
Whatever we did that’s making me feel this way
This happy moment that fades with the sun
Dear brain, will you please let me keep one?
Before it’s over, before this day ends
Please just let me soak it all in
Sometimes it’s hard to let wonderful moments end
Who knows if I’ll ever remember them again
Thank you for understanding my friend
At least next time will be like the first time again
So please understand I’m soaking it all in
I may not ever remember “that one time when”
In this moment I may seem a little unfriendly
I’m fighting like hell to hold on
Before I lose this memory
