Analysis of Millennium memories
Old scars bleed sometimes
When you scratch them too hard
On lonely nights
Your memories like a dagger
Plunge into my heart
My blood stains the heathers red
So I lock these memories
And throw them at sea
Lost with the tides i wish they might be
Like a treasure lost at sea
Perhaps one day they'll be found again
By a young sailor
Whose maiden awaits on shore
And he will gift this treasure to his lover
Young and in love
Just like as you and I used to be
