Suddenly it hits me
Sounds and voices from another time
Smell of baking pie and laundry
The soft touch of my mother's hand on my little head

Daddy's calling me to come outside
To see the grasshopper eats the grass
Trying to ride on my dog as if it were a horse
Crying when they had to make her sleep forever

Pictures of a happy childhood
Flashing in front of my eyes
Memories of somewhere, elsewhere
I know it's more than just a fading dream
