Memory Album

Memories are life's special moments

Borrowed from the passing of time.

Ghosts and shadows from bygone days,

Find out what's happening in Pleasantonfor free with the latest updates from Patch.

Etched and stored inside our minds.

Our minds are a memory album

Where the past and present meet,

Memories we lovingly cling to

That makes the heart skip a beat.

Some we would like to forget.

Some we love to treasure.

Some memories become precious gifts

That lives on forever and ever.

Yes, memories are precious moments,

And I have quite a few,

The memories I treasure the most

Are those I made with you.
