Memento Steve Roberts

Today I’m happy I’ve just come from the bar
I’m on the street not going far
No one to meet and my love is texting me
Life is shapely when you’re free / when you’re free

Today I’m happy I’ve got everything I need
Friday evening it’s still light
Hotels shopping malls high rise in the clouds
Now I can lose myself in the crowd / in the crowd

The world is turning got a message from my love
The world is turning she’s thinking of me
The world is changing and it’s carrying us away
The world is changing I wouldn’t have it any other way

Acacias dropping yellow flowers everywhere
I scoop them up my only souvenir
I’ve just seen someone who looks like a memory
Or maybe it’s just the time of year / the time of year

These flowers remind me of someone who’s not here
That’s the memento in my palm
Whisper your thoughts , let’s steal a moment we can share
Pretend that time has done no harm / done no harm

The world is turning got a message from my love
The world is turning she’s thinking of me
The world is changing and it’s carrying us away
The world is changing I wouldn’t have it any other way
