Memories seem to take a great deal
of courage to face...
let me catch my breath
and I'll explain.
How can I show you
what I see?
Or help you to feel
what I feel?

I remember there was a beach...
or a park
that we visited.
(Who visited?)
Doing nothing.

I remember those places
where happiness was finding
a new way to hold her - 
the object of my love - 
who?
The one who loved me.
and to be held by her...

Happiness was so easy then.
