Those melodies that we two crossed years

Have underscored our laughter and our tears

With every phrase we see the past unfold

Like memories in gold

Some tunes remind us of our childhood days

Sunday afternoons and songs of praise

Reflecting happy times in joys untold

These memories in gold

From those early nursery rhymes

Through our adolescent times

We find more varied as we went along

And how could we go wrong

And how could we go wrong

With a special song

That would always see us through

Our lives without them might be cold and bleak

Our favorite song is more than words can speak

They helped me win your love to heaven hold

Sweet memories in gold

When the band played rock and roll

And the people called it soul

Our favorite songs were like a tapestry

Edged in melody

They would always be part of you and part of me

There's little more to add when songs are sung

The words and music help keep us young

And so we're not afraid of growing old

With memories let's hear them please

Sweet memories in gold
