Sweet Memories
Mickey Newbury
My world is like a river, mmm, as dark as it is deep
Night after night, the past slips in, and gathers all my sleep
My days are just an endless stream of emptiness to me
Filled only by the fleeting moments of her memories
Sweet memories, oh Lord
Sweet memories, oh Lord
He slipped into the silence of my dreams again last night
Wandering from room to room, turning on the lights
Your laughter spills like a river of water out the sea
I'm swept away from sadness clinging to your memory
Sweet memories (Sing it)
Sweet memories, oh oh
Hey now
