Remember when
Michael Dobbs 1960 (Te Aroha)
Do you remember when...
I barely remember now
Let alone then
They say we were great
But losing one's memory
That's something I hate
The car I could trust
Now like my brain
Is just full of rust
Days of activity and fare
To be perfectly honest
Are very rare
Most of my precious time spent
Searching endlessly
For letters never sent
Where did all that time go
Seems like just yesterday
But honestly I just don't know
