Artist/Band: Dolly Parton
Lyrics for Song: Only the Memory Remains
Lyrics for Album: Portrait [1985]



(Dolly Parton)



You're gone now for good and it looks like I could

Stop crying but I cry just the same

When a heart breaks how long does it take

Till the pain stops and only the mem'ry remains.



It's been a long time and you think that by this time

My tears would have drown on the face

I could live with a mem'ry oh but how long will it be

Till the pain stops and only the mem'ry remains.



The fire that we started burns on though we've parted

And I'm tortured by the heat of the flame

If I'm strong enough to take it till the pain stops and can make it

When only the mem'ry remains.



I could live with a mem'ry but how long will it be

Till the tears stop and the pain stops and only the mem'ry remains

Only the mem'ry only the mem'ry remains...
