Some folks said I was getting' well
|
But through the tears I couldn't tell
|
I could not see past yesterday
|
Cause your memory stood there in my way
|
|
A lonely mind plays funny tricks
|
Works on things that can't be fixed
|
It's bound to dwell on what you miss
|
Like a midnight touch or a morning kiss
|
|
It's still hard to face a day if you ain't in it
|
But I had to draw the line, a million tears
|
is a man's limit
|
No, I don't expect your memory to let me
|
Ever forget it
|
But once in a while I live through a minute
|
And you ain't in it
|
|
It didn't take a clock to alarm me
|
I was always up, I'd never sleep
|
Scared to death I'd dream of you
|
That's more'n I wanted to put my old heart through
|
|
A big dark cloud followed me around
|
Didn't dare look up or I'd have drowned
|
Thought you took that sun with you
|
But today my curtain let a little peep slip through
|
|
It's still hard to face a day if you ain't in it
|
But I had to draw the line, a million tears
|
is a man's limit
|
No, I don't expect your memory to let me
|
Ever forget it
|
But once in a while I live through a minute
|
And you ain't in it
|
