Eddie Cochran - Cherished memories

Ray Edward 'Eddie' Cochran (October 3, 1938–April 17, 1960) was an American rock and roll pioneer who, in his brief career, had a small but lasting influence on rock music through his guitar playing. Cochran's rockabilly songs, such as "C'mon Everybody", "Somethin' Else", and "Summertime Blues", captured teenage frustration and desire in the late 1950s and early 1960s. He experimented with multitrack recording and overdubbing even on his earliest singles, and was also able to play piano, bass and drums. His image as a sharply dressed, rugged but good-looking young man with a rebellious attitude epitomized the stance of the Fifties rocker, and in death he achieved an iconic status. more »

You're goin' away, away from me
But here in my heart is a memory
Of the way we met, the way we kissed
The way we fell in love

Oh, the little secrets that we shared
When I was sad, the way you cared
To let me know you'd understand
The way you'd hold my hand

Cherished memories
The things that a fella can't forget
Cherished memories
You're leaving but I love you yet

And now you say that we must part
And even though it breaks my heart
There's one thing you can't take from me
That's my cherished memory

Cherished memories
The things that a fella can't forget
Cherished memories
You're leaving but I love you yet

And now you say that we must part
And even though it breaks my heart
There's one thing you can't take from me
That's my cherished memory

Cherished memory
