An Old Memory Like Me

(Don Cook - John Barlow Jarvis)



There's a clock on the wall at the end of the hall

That hasn't kept time in years

There's an old tattered bear in the bedroom somewhere

'Cause ya can't hardly sleep 'less it's near.



There's an old box of letters I know you still save

'Cause you're too sentimental to throw them away

But is there room in your heart

For an old memory like me?



There's an old satin gown been twice handed down

You were savin' for your weddin' day

But you married in haste, what a terrible waste

And it never got used anyway.



There's a bottle of champainge, it's french 59

But you might as well drink it to happier times

Is there room in your heart

For an old memory like me?



I used to tease you 'cause you couldn't part with

things that were no use at all

Now I'm afraid that you'll toss them away

After all.



Like the clock on the wall at the end of the hall

That hasn't kept time in years

Like the old tattered bear in the bedroom somewhere

You can't hardly sleep 'less it's near .



There's a bottle of champainge, it's french 59

But you might as well drink it to happier times

Is there room in your heart

For an old memory like me?



Mmm hmm, is there room in your heart

For an old memory like me, mhm, mhm...
