[Verse 1]
It's been so long
Since I've seen her face
You say she's doing fine
I still recall
A sad cafe
How it hurt so bad to see her cry
I didn't want to say good-bye

[Chorus]
Send her my love, memories remain
Send her my love, roses never fade
Send her my love

[Verse 2]
The same hotel, the same old room
I'm on the road again
She needed so much more
Than I could give
We knew our love could not pretend
Broken hearts can always mend

[Chorus]
Send her my love, memories remain
Send her my love, roses never fade
Send her my love

[Verse 3]
Calling out her name I'm dreaming
Reflections of a face I'm seeing
It's her voice
That keeps on haunting me

[Chorus]
Send her my love, memories remain
Send her my love, roses never fade
Send her my love

[Outro]
Send her, send her my love
Roses never fade
Memories remain

Send her, send her my love

Journey

Journey is an American rock band that formed in San Francisco in 1973, composed of former members of Santana and Frumious Bandersnatch. The band has gone through several phases; its strongest commercial success occurred while fronted by vocalist Steve Perry, from 1978 until the group’s disbandment in 1987. During that period, the band released a series of hit songs, including 1981’s “Don’t Stop Believin'”, which in 2009 became the top-selling track in iTunes history amongst songs not released in the 21st century. Its parent studio album, Escape, the band’s eighth and most successful, reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and yielded another of their most popular singles, “Open Arms”. Its 1983 follow-up album, Frontiers, was almost as successful in the United States, reaching No. 2 and spawning several successful singles; it broadened the band’s appeal in the United Kingdom, where it reached No. 6 on the UK Albums Chart. Journey enjoyed a successful reunion with Perry in the mid-1990s and later regrouped with a series of lead singers.
