Remembering - Jerry Reed

Every night I go down to this same little joint

Fill up my glass till I reach the point past remembering

Where the music is loud the conversation is free

A dance or two with someone to keep me from remembering

The fool I’ve been the hurt I’ve caused the good woman that I loved and lost

For she’s constantly with me in memory

I go home but I couldn’t sleep and after hours I’d be walkin' the streets

remembering

A good woman’s love is hard to find and my woman’s love was just that kind

And I’m the reason that she’s gone today

I miss her so and the price that I pay is remembering

I take her to sleep in my dreams every night

Then start all over in the morning light remebering

The way it was when she loved me then like a fool how I carelessly

Broke her heart then watched my world fall apart

I’d give this world for yesterday just to have her love me the way I remember

Just to have her love me the way I remember
