Sweet Memories
Mickey Newbury
[Verse 1]
My world is like a river 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
[Chorus]
Sweet memories
Sweet memories
Hmm
[Verse 2]
She slipped into the silence of my dreams last night
Wandering from room to room she's turning on each light
Her laughter spills like water from the river to the sea
I'm swept away from sadness clinging to her memories
[Chorus]
Sweet memories
Sweet memories
Hmm
