My Personal World, Part 17: Ten Words

It takes forty bars to get stuck in your head.
Those are memories ears don't forget,
But sometimes it only takes ten words to know
That a new song I hear echoes ten years ago,
Hitting bittersweet chords, a new graduate's theme,
Two songs nothing alike but they bring hindsight-dreams.
They both make me feel young. They both make me feel old.
They alter time's flow in my personal world.
