Remembering

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
