Lyrics
Precious memories, how, how, how they linger
Yeah, yeah, ah-ah, hmm-mm
How they ever flood my soul
Whoa, yeah, well, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
It's in, in the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred, oh, yes, scenes unfold
It's in, in, in the stillness when everybody's gone
Of, of, of the midnight, oh, yes
Echoes, hmm, echoes from the past somewhere, oh, oh, yes
This is what I've been hearing
Yes, old, old-time singing
Gladness, gladness ringing
From the lovely land somewhere, oh, yes, hm
Precious father
Loving, loving mother, hm
Fly, oh, yes, fly across the lonely years, ooh, the lonely years
And old, old home scenes, oh, I count it back so, father, of my childhood
In, in, in memories, in memories appear
Ooh-ooh, oh, yes
