    Memories is a song I wrote about my church youth group and all the fun time we've had.
    Credits: Chris Backe, singer/songwriter. H.P. Vectra, Instrumentalist

    Story Behind the Song
    A lot of the song was written in one sitting one night as I was thinking about all the great times I had had with my youth group, all the fun trips and such. The melody came to me later on, but at first I was just glad to get some words. This was actually the first song I ever completed, but there's many more to come!

    Lyrics
    MEMORIES by Chris Backe © 2000
    1st verse
    Looking back, all the things we’ve done, it’s hard to believe you’ll be gone
    We all knew this time would come, but never forget where you came from
    The rest of your life is here, but don’t be worried ‘cause I’ll always be near
    Anytime, any place, anywhere you know, my friendship for you I will always show, through

    1st chorus
    Memories, of playing in the snow
    Memories, of singing at the talent show
    Memories, of going on a trip and forgetting what to pack
    But helping each other with what we had lack, Memories

    2nd verse
    Well, I still can’t believe it’s time, but time flies when there’s mountains to climb
    The friendships we have will always last, but never start living your life in the past
    Embrace your future and become what you must, but never forget about those that you trust
    Anytime, any place, anywhere you know, my friendship for you I will always show, through

    2nd chorus
    Memories, of camping below the stars
    Memories, of dreaming ‘bout lands afar
    Memories, of going outside and getting caught in a storm
    But with your jacket keeping nice and warm, Memories

    (Short piano instrumental)

    3rd verse
    It’s been a long time now, seeing you all grown up now
    Looking back and remembering the times, those times we laughed and those times we cried
    But that’s the past, and this is now, time is a force that doesn’t bow, but
    Anytime, any place, anywhere you know, my friendship for you I will always show, through

    3rd chorus
    Memories, of taking a stand
    Memories, of joining the band
    Memories, of acting in a play and forgetting my lines
    Yet you got us help for both yours and mine, Memories

    Bridge
    So let’s keep being friends
    We’ll never have to miss each other again
    With God on our side for the rest of our lives
    I know we’ll always relive

    (Repeat 1st chorus)
