Only a Memory - The Smithereens

My mind is filled with thoughts of you

I think about the days of two

I search the room but you’re not there

Your perfume lingers everywhere

But it’s

Only a memory

Of what our love was going to be Only a memory

Broken bits of you and me Only a memory

Only a memory

In a world of pain I have no peer

You fade away and disappear

And now I have to learn the game

Where no one wins or takes the blame

But it’s

Only a memory

Of what our love was going to be Only a memory

Now that we are history

Only a memory

Only a memory

But it’s

Only a memory

Of what our love was going to be Only a memory

Broken bits of you and me Only a memory

Only a memory

Why should it matter if I cry

I sit around and wonder why

Now I feel much too weak to live

And I’ve got nothing left to give

Now it’s

Only a memory

Of what our love was going to be Only a memory

Broken bits of you and me Only a memory

Only a memory

Only a memory

(Fade)
