Mel Tillis Lyrics
"Always Just a Memory Away"

(Lonnie Tillis)

Where the music's playin' loud you'll find me in the crowd
Laughing like an actor in a play
But the teardrops that I hide are just secrets of my pride
Cause you're always just a memory away.

Always just a memory away
I miss you more each night and more and more each day
Lovely ladies that I meet never make my nights complete
'Cause you're always just a memory away.

--- Instrumental ---

The flashing neon signs are like heartbeats counting time
And there's twenty four hours in a day
Play the music pour the wine let me drink until I'm blind
Cause you're always just a memory away.

Always just a memory away
I miss you more each night and more and more each day
Lovely ladies that I meet never make my nights complete
'Cause you're always just a memory away.

Always just a memory away...
