lyrics
A New Memory of Music
We need a guide in our time,
Something to help us refrain
From wandering down blind alleyways
Away from Memory Lane
We've got to look to the future
But live our lives for today
Still, the past can preserve us
And take away the pain
Give me the memory of music
The melodies that we make
All harmony together
We all know what's at stake
And if I have to sing for my supper
Then that's a chance I'll take
So give me the memory of music
Not music for the heartache
Sweet music for its own sake
We've got to look to the future
But live our lives for today
Still, the past can preserve us
And take away the pain
The beat is fine for the days ahead
The melody is unchained
It drives us down life's highways
A map of Memory Lane
We're tuning up for the future
And damping down the pain
And the past that helped preserve us
Let's us play for today
We need a guide in our time,
Something to help us refrain
From wandering down blind alleyways
Away from Memory Lane
We've got to look to the future
But live our lives for today
Still, the past can preserve us
And take away the pain
Give me the memory of music
The melodies that we make
All harmony together
We all know what's at stake
And if I have to sing for my supper
Then that's a chance I'll take
So give me the memory of music
Not music for the heartache
Sweet music for its own sake
We've got to look to the future
But live our lives for today
Still, the past can preserve us
And take away the pain
The beat is fine for the days ahead
The melody is unchained
It drives us down life's highways
A map of Memory Lane
We're tuning up for the future
And damping down the pain
And the past that helped preserve us
Let's us play for today
