Memories - Marc B

Pack up all your books

Let me take you for a ride to the South Side

Give this coast a look

I almost guarantee you’ll never see these sites with me again, so

Take it all in.

Cuz every wave that rolls to shore

You’ve never seen that wave before.

Let you life begin.

With island time my family’s blessed and

Winter’s when the sun set’s best.

Memories

They settle me down.

Treat yourself with respect

Nourish your body, soul, and mind

And with your liver, do be kind.

You will come to regret

Every woman, man, and child

Who chose to smile when you didn’t smile.

Look me in the eyes and tell me that you won’t cry when I leave,

'Cuz I’ve got a few things I’d like to explain to you.

Memories

They settle me down

They put me on the ground.
