For every time I tripped and fell
For every story there was to tell
For every song that is on replay
For every smile of everyday
For every dance I felt free
For every kiss between you and me
For every random drive in my car
For every sunset and every star
For every laugh and every tear
For every day and every year
For every photo and every pose
For every flower and every rose
For every smell ever so sweet
For every time I got back on my feet
For every taste that took my breath away
For every hope, I still pray
For every person that made a mark
For every light that turned to dark
For every friend that stuck around
For every opportunity I found
For every moment that I hold
Mean more to me than gold
My precious memories contain my life
For every achievement, happiness and strife
Memories are the most precious thing I own
They are original, they are home grown.
