Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Every morning, with tea in hand,
I open my crossword, hoping memory will stand.
Words entwined in a mesh of secrets,
In the lamp’s light, I search quietly amidst the stillness.

[Chorus]
Oh, puzzles on paper, you challenge me,
Preserving my thoughts, or so I believe.
Yet, each forgotten word, a subtle clue,
That my memory fades, more than I knew.

[Verse 2]
Across and down, the clues I chase,
Each answer a victory, in this memory race.
But as the day closes, the struggles grow,
Questions linger, answers slow.

[Chorus]
Oh, puzzles on paper, you challenge me,
Preserving my thoughts, or so I believe.
Yet, each forgotten word, a subtle clue,
That my memory fades, more than I knew.

[Bridge]
In the quiet corners of my mind,
The words scramble, harder to find.
A silent battle, unseen but felt,
Against the fading, a hand I’m dealt.

[Chorus repeat]
Oh, puzzles on paper, you challenge me,
Preserving my thoughts, or so I believe.
Yet, each forgotten word, a subtle clue,
That my memory fades, more than I knew.

[Outro]
As the puzzle completes, I smile with grace,
Accepting the journey, at my own pace.
For in these crosswords, my past intertwines,
Holding onto memories, through woven lines.
