Looking For A Memory

Chorus
I’m looking for a memory,
Not just any old one will do.
The memory I’m searching for
Is one that reminds me of you.

I’m searching for the happiness
That you and I once used to share.
I let it slip through my fingers
Believing that you didn’t care.
Darling I should have known better
Than listen to all of their lies.
The truth was there for me to see
Every time I looked in your eyes.

Chorus
I’m looking for a memory,
Not just any old one will do.
The memory I’m searching for
Is one that reminds me of you.

Why I let my head rule my heart
My darling, I’ll just never know.
Instead of listening to you
I stood there and just watched you go.
All I have now are my mem’ries
And each day they grow less and less.
Soon they’ll be all gone forever,
Taking with them my happiness.

Chorus
I’m looking for a memory,
Not just any old one will do.
The memory I’m searching for
Is one that reminds me of you.
