New Patches - Charley Pride

Now and then an old friend tries to help me

By telling me there’s someone that I should meet

Hey, but I don’t have the heart to start all over

'Cause my heart is laying at another’s feet

You just don’t put new patches on old garments

Hey, I don’t want no one else on my mind

I just don’t need nobody new to cling to, Lord

'Cause I still love someone I’ve known a long, long time

I have built my world around a memory

And she’s the only one that I let in

'Cause every time I’ve tried to love somebody, Lord

In my mind I’m loving her again

You just don’t put new patches on old garments

Hey, and I don’t want no one else on my mind

I just don’t need nobody new to cling to, Lord

'Cause I still love someone I’ve known a long, long time

Yes, I still love someone I’ve known a long, long time
