“The way she held your hand,
The little things you planned.
Her memory is with you yet,
That's someone you'll never forget.”
That's Someone You Never Forget, from Pot Luck, written by Elvis Presley and Red West (1961)

“I pictured a rainbow
you held it in your hands
I had flashes
but you saw the plan”

Context: I pictured a rainbow
you held it in your hands
I had flashes
but you saw the plan
I wandered out in the world for years
you just stayed in your room
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon.

Context: “Never make your home in a place,” the old man had said, too lazy in the spring warmth to do more than wag a finger. “Make a home for yourself inside your own head. You’ll find what you need to furnish it—memory, friends you can trust, love of learning, and other such things.” Morgenes had grinned. “That way it will go with you wherever you journey. You’ll never lack for a home—unless you lose your head, of course...”

Song lyrics, Hounds of Love (1985), The Ninth Wave

“Preserve your memories, keep them well, what you forget you can never retell.”
