Precious Memories

(B.F. Wright)

George Jones & Patti Page



(George)

Precious mem'ries, unseen angel

Sent from somewhere to my soul

How they linger ever near me

And the sacred past unfolds.



Precious father, lovin' mother

Fly across the lonely years

And old home scenes of my childhood

In fond memory appear.



Precious mem'ries, how they linger

how they ever flood my soul

In the stillness of the midnight

Precious sacred scenes unfold.



(Patti)

As I travel on life pathway

Know not what the years may hold

As I ponder, all brought fonder

Precious memories flood my soul.



Precious mem'ries, how they linger

How they ever flood my soul

In the stillness of the midnight

Precious sacred scenes unfold.



(George)

Precious mem'ries how they linger

How they ever flood my soul

(Both)

In the stillness of the midnight

Precious sacred scenes unfold.



(George spoken)

Oh, how those precious mem'ries flood my soul...
