More Than a Memory
Moments in life can be replayed over and over again. Ever noticed that? Sometimes they are moments of amazing happiness - like maybe your wedding day. Or when you found out you were pregnant (when you were trying to achieve such a status at least). Other times they are sad - like funerals, break-ups. And sometimes - a lot of the time - most of the time - they are nostalgic, bittersweet.
Tonight is one of those nights. A movie - a meal - the memories.
More Than a Memory
People say she’s only in my head
Its gonna take time to laugh again
They say I need to get on with my life
But they don’t realize
Is when your dialing 6 numbers just to hang up the phone.
Driving cross town just to see if she’s home.
Waking a friend in the dead of night, just to hear ‘em say it’s gonna be alright.
When your finding things to do not to fall asleep cuz you know she’ll be there in your dreams.
Thats when she’s
more than a memory
Took a match to everything she ever wrote
Watched her words go up in smoke
Tore all the pictures off the wall
But that aint helping me at all.
Cuz when your talking out loud and nobody’s there
You look like hell and you just don’t care
Drinking more than you’ve ever drank
Sinking down lower than you’ve ever sank
When you find yourself falling down upon your knees, praying to God, begging him PLEASE
That’s when she’s
More than a Memory
She’s more
She’s more
Cuz when your dialing her number just to hang up the phone
Driving cross town just to see if she’s home
waking a friend in the dead of night, just to hear ‘em say it’s gonna be alright
When our finding things to do not to fall asleep cuz you know she’ll be waiting in your dreams
That’s when she’s
More than a Memory
People say she’s only in my head
Its gonna take time to laugh again
