The Soundtrack of my Life

When you hear that familiar song, it transports you from here to there,
remembering love throughout time, remembering those loved throughout your life

That place so long ago, it takes you there in an instant,
the places, the people and sometimes the scent of remembrance is lingering too

As the song and the lyric flow, my memory goes into overload,
Feelings a long time since forgotten, some of joy and some of pain but it’s just the memory that really remains

Another song is now being sung, now this reminds me of someone not so long ago,
who was it and when I want to know, ah, thats it, reminds me of dad and doing that

I choose to remember by playing that song, it helps me to remember where I came from
Each song I play reminds me of time, it comes straight from my mind, the place and the time

Each song completes some of the path, songs forgotten and then suddenly heard, remind me of something rather absurd

Go on give it a try, remember your life, the musical journey,
The lovers, the friends and your family, remember how it used to be

The wonderful times coming back from obscurity, back to your memory,
You won't regret it or forget it, the soundtrack of your life for eternity
