In Love With A Memory

We were listening to the radio

After dark, in the Park by Hurricane Shoals

on a blanket by the waterfalls,

Holdin hands, Sweet Romance til the Rooster Called

Then I drove her home thinkin Ain't love grand,

Oh I've never felt that way before, and I never have again..

Now I'm in Love with a memory,

Sweet history's got ahold of me,

So don't' go fallin for me now...

We could never be,

Cause I'm in love with a Memory

We were lying on the Midland Train,

by 129, just barely hiding from the four lane

Close my Eyes and I can see her still,

Perfect body stretched out for me, every tan line revealed

She headed off to college that September,

And she left me with a kiss, that I always will remember...

Now I'm in love with a memory,

Sweet history's got ahold of me,

So don't go fallin for me now,

We could never be,

Cause I'm in love with a Memory

Oh many girls have come and gone,

Half the women in this county swear my heart is made of stone,

That one old flame still burns away,

Yeah the love I lost ten years ago, is the one I'm longin for today

And I'm in love with, oh I'm in love with a Memory

Sweet history's got ahold of me,

So don't fallin for me now,

We could never be,

Cause I'm in love with a Memory

We could never be,

Cause I'm in love with a memory

Oh I'm in love with a memory
