Random Memories - my lyrics, music/performance by Gordon Todd

Candlelight paints quick shadows
As the gale blows off the moors
Rain batters the windows
Wind rattles the door

Reliving those sweet moments
In this old house we once shared
I recall the pleasure
The love words we said

Random memories make me smile
Make me stop and think awhile
Give my mind a little space
Take me to a special place
Help me forget you’ve gone away
Help me through another day

I see us lying on crumpled sheets
Smell the sweat, feel the heat
Remember your skin, your silken hair
Curled together in that battered chair

Random memories make me smile
Make me stop and think awhile
Give my mind a little space
Take me to a special place
Help me forget you’ve gone away
Help me through another day
