My Favorite Memory

(Merle Haggard)



The first time we met is a favorite memory of mine

They say time changes all it pertains to

But your memory is stronger than time

I guess everything does change

Except what you choose to recall

There's a million good daydreams to dream on

But Baby, you are my favorite memory of all.



Like the night we made love in the hallway

Slept all night long on the floor

Like the winter we spent on Lake Shasta alone

Closer than ever before

And I remember than London vacation

It was you that made the whole thing a ball

There's a million good times I could dwell on

But Baby, you are my favorite memory of all.
