You are gone like the shadow in the dark
I have cried to repair this broken heart
Still it seems I'm forever paying dues
I'm finding out old memories are hard to lose

I go out where the single people go
And drivin' home I turn on the radio
Some old song sets my mind up like a fuse
I'm finding out old memories are hard to lose

Old memories don't seem to wash away the tears
And bygones ain't bygones if you're still livin' here
In my mind oh it's shattered and abused
I'm finding out old memories are hard to lose

Every night sentimental souvenirs
Take me back when that dream of you appears
While I sleep there's no way I can refuse
I'm finding out old memories are hard to lose

Old memories don't seem to wash away the tears...
I'm finding out old memories are hard to lose
