Powder Blue Memory - BeeWaee
I found a ribbon in a drawer today
Powder blue and slightly frayed
And just like that the years rolled back
To laughter on a painted track
You wore that dress, the summer fair
With sunlight tangled in your hair
We ran like we had wings to try
Chasing clouds across the sky
Oh, that powder blue memory
Still shines like it used to be
Every little laugh we knew
Still feels fresh as morning dew
In a powder blue memory
Love was light and running free
Simple days and skies so wide
With you right there by my side
We shared a soda, two straws, one grin
Talking 'bout the lives we'd win
You drew our names upon the sand
And held the future in your hand
No heavy dreams, no plans to prove
Just bicycles and teenage grooves
Every sunset felt brand new
Every road led back to you
Oh, that powder blue memory
Still shines like it used to be
Every little laugh we knew
Still feels fresh as morning dew
In a powder blue memory
Love was light and running free
Simple days and skies so wide
With you right there by my side
Time moved on like rivers do
Carrying me away from you
But sometimes when the sky turns bright
I hear your laughter in the light
Not with tears and not with pain
Just a warmth like summer rain
A gentle smile, a tender hue
From all those days in powder blue
Oh, that powder blue memory
Still lives on so easily
Every little joy we knew
Paints my world in softer blue
In a powder blue memory
Love was young and wild and free
Though the years have wandered through
I still smile when I think of you
Oh, that powder blue memory
Soft as it was meant to be
Every time my heart feels new
It's touched by shades of powder blue
