lyrics

When you're feeling lonely and the world is getting cold
Memories give shelter from the storm,
And all those disappointment that down the years you hold
Each and every one will keep you warm.
Like when your mummy left you at school and didn't wave bye-bye
How your daddy never kissed goodnight,
That game when you were just a kid
Of hide-and-seek, you went and hid
They said they'd find you but they never did
They left you up a tree -
Memories are company.

The teacher who was rude about a poem that you penned
Just because he said he didn't rhyme.
The girl you took to the school dance who left with your best friend
How it really hurt you at the time.
Later on they married, and on their wedding day
They invited everyone but you.
Take these grudges every night,
Shine them up so nice and bright,
Hold on to them very tight,
And you will soon agree
Memories are company.

Something once said by your ex,
She laughed at you during sex
You still from the effects
In ways no one can see
Memories are company (So don't move on)
Memories are compa - (Never let them go)
Memories are company.
