Once in life you meet someone who gives to you   The reason for that life and what some love can do   So now I'm armed for trouble times with all I need   For I have you my favorite memory   You gave me something time can never take from me   A light that guides me when life's dark and I can't see   When I'm cold depend to hold will comfort me   Cause you'll be there my favorite memory   [ steel ]   Your lips were sweet your arms were warm I tasted light   You have my heart in every dream I dream each night   For something cause I've done dear now and I must sleep   You'll be my favorite memory   Now don't you cry it's not goodbye it's just so long   I'll take you with me where I'll travel from now on   Cause when I close my eyes at night and go to sleep   You're lying there my favorite memory
