Alyson Chase - Shades of Yesterday Lyrics

Memories flood, of days in sunlit haze
Your hand-me-down jeans, and our carefree ways
A mother's weary smile, playing double roles
Her strength, a silent beacon, through life's tolls
Your gentle soul, in a world so rough
A young heart, brave, never feeling enough
Beats shared in secret, half yours, half mine
In your gaze, a world tender and benign
I carry these memories, hope they've never faded
Do you still talk to the stars, feel elated
Do films still make you pause, and catch your breath
In the tapestry of time, do these moments have depth
Afternoons spent dreaming, under spring's embrace
You spoke of distant shores, a tranquil place
Come find me, you whispered, where the sea meets sky
In those moments, we lived, no need to ask why
When the world discovered, the softness of our touch
My hands shook, the reality too much
A disapproving glare, misunderstanding our connection
In the pages of our youth, a reflection of
I remember, hoping all remains unchanged
Do you still find solace in the rain
In moments of solitude, do your thoughts still roam free
In our shared past, a haven, forever it will be
In shades of yesterday, in stories untold
I remember you, in warmth, never cold
I remember you, in warmth, never cold
And in my heart, a hope, softly and tenderly unfurled
That the essence of you, still touches the world
