Lyrics | I am Eliz | R – O Memories

R - O Memories

I can find (find)
All these moments (moments)
In my memories (memories)
And the melodies (melodies)

I close my eyes
I can feel them now
Memories are open doors
You get in not knowing how
You can’t find the outdoors

I can’t let go
In my core
All these moments
A pain to explore

Memories (they get you high)
Memories (can make you cry)
Memories (won’t say goodbye)
Memories (won’t answer why)

I can close my eyes
They are here to stay
You will get a ride
To an unknown pathway
And no place to hide

I can’t let go
In my core
All these moments
A pain to explore

Memories (they get you high)
Memories (can make you cry)
Memories (won’t say goodbye)
Memories (won’t answer why)

I can’t let go
All these moments
Imprinted in my core
Painfully to explore

Memories (they get you high)
Can make you cry (Memories)
Memories (won’t say goodbye)
Memories (won’t answer why)

I can find (find)
All these moments (moments)
In my memories (memories)
And the melodies (melodies)
Mmm, mmm

I can find (find)
All these moments (moments)
In my memories (memories)
And the melodies (melodies)

Song info

A meditation on the power memories hold over us. The imagery of memories as “open doors” with no “outdoors” suggests being trapped in the past. The parenthetical descriptions “(they get you high)/(can make you cry)” acknowledge memories’ dual nature as both comfort and pain.
