You Can't Put Your Arms Round A Memory

It doesn't pay to try

All the smart boys know why

It doesn't mean I didn't try

I just never know why

Feel so cold and all alone

'cause baby you're not at home

And when I'm home

Big deal I'm still alone

Feel so restless I am

Beat my head against a pole

Try to knock some sense

Down in my bones

And even though they don't show

The scars aren't so old

And when they go

They let you know

You can't put your arms around a memory

You can't put your arms around a memory

You can't put your arms around a memory

Don't try don't try

You're just a bastard kid

And you got no name

'cause you're living with me

We're one and the same

And even though they don't show

They scars aren't so old

And when they go

They let you know

You can't put your arms around a memory

You can't put your arms around a memory

You can't put your arms around a memory

Don't try don't try

You can't put your arms around a memory

You can't put your arms around a memory

You can't put your arms around a memory

Don't try don't try

Don't try don't try

Don't try
