Songtexte Leah (Nothin' but a Memory) - Ben Wilson

Why do I feel like I've known you for all my life,
Even thought we've hardly met?
Tell me why does your face come to my mind,
When I think about the perfect sunset?
Could it be that it's just some strange coincidence
Or maybe our stars are crossed?
I don't know what it is but hearing you're with him,
I feel like part of me's been lost

So someone tell me, maybe, how am I to try
To make a little sense out of this?
Wondering, wanting, but never ever knowing
The taste of your sweet kiss,
Is this just a dose of puppy love
Or is there something deeper still?
Can you explain the rhymes or reasons behind
These emotions that I feel?

Do you miss me like I miss you when I'm laying down?
And do you see me in your dreams?
And do you hope and pray, that maybe someday
We'll be like islands in the stream
Cause I want to know you, and you to know me
To turn back the hands of time
But that's fate and that's life, and the death of a dream
You can't be his and mine

I saw your picture in the paper and it made me smile
You both looked so in love
Then it hit me all at once like a lightening rod
Sweet mercies from above
Though my heart's still tied up in what might have been
But my head got some clarity
Moving on will be hard but in time you will be
Nothing but a memory
