Memories Burn Hard

[Verse 1]
Look back, look back through the red and rotted leaves
When jewelry turned your head and brought you to your knees
Our lives took place on some funny planet then

[Chorus]
Letters burn easy with one little spark
But I'm afraid memories burn hard

[Verse 2]
We met, the explosion stretched us at our seams
The fallout soon subsided along with the dreams
But does that mean that we cannot remember when

[Chorus]
Letters burn easy with one little spark
But I'm afraid memories burn hard

[Bridge]
Unsheltered insecure
We were alone those days
And the conquering of our lives
Set the tone those days
But the elements and style
We must carry with us now

[Outro]
Here's one more dime store novel
I can't throw away
Letters burn easy
With one little spark
But I'm afraid
Memories burn hard

Letters burn easy
With one little spark
But I'm afraid
Memories burn hard
