Only a Memory

ONLY A MEMORY

Only a memory in the ocean of time
A brief discord in cosmos' rhyme
Is this to be our destiny?
The answer lies within you and me.

Only a memory, the aborted birth
Of a glorious hope instilled in earth
Can we rearrange what seems to be?
The answer will come from you and me.

Only a memory is a heavy thought
That all our lives will come to naught
The future will copy faithfully
The thoughts sent out by you and me.

(Chorus)
What kind of fool would choose to be
Only a memory in the cosmic sea.
