Mel Tillis Lyrics
"Remembering"

(Jerry Reed Hubbard)

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.

Well 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...
