Read Me a Memory
Music and Lyrics by Jay Richards

PDF Version

Read me a mem’ry, tell me a tale.
Speak of wondrous adventures.
Together we’ll sail off to forests enchanted and lands far away.
Fairies and kings, and magical rings,
My heart has wings,
When I sit at your knee and you read to me.

Years turn like pages, soon I’ll be grown.
Maybe someday I’ll read to a child of my own.
Though I may not remember the stories we shared,
I always knew, through time spent with you
That you loved me too;
For I sat at your knee and you read to me.

Childhood like summer days; Dews on the grass,
Soon will be yesterdays. Don’t let it pass,

‘Til you read me a mem’ry, tell me a tale,
Speak of wondrous adventures.
Together we’ll sail off to forests enchanted and lands far away.
Fairies and kings, and magical rings.
My heart has wings!
When I sit at your knee and you read to me.
