Carousel of Memories Lyrics

As we go through life

We lose something

Something magical

We lose the memories of yesteryear

We grow

And the child within us

Becomes a memory

A memory that repeats itself

From time to time

Bringing back those bittersweet

and carefree moments

Before time swept in and carried it away

On its nonstop ride through eternity

We reach the age

Of realization

And the innocence

We once had

Is lost

Family friends and all else

Ultimately become memories

As we reach the end of our program tonight

I leave you with these final thoughts

When we see the white light at the end of our time

When the carousel of memories

Circles through our minds

What will be our impression

Will we have lived to our fullest potential

Or will we look back on a life full of regrets

Will our legacy inspire

Or be easily forgotten

What memories will you have left behind

For those who come after

Life passes in the blink of an eye

Don't let it slip by
