Memories for Sale

Brenda Lee · Even Better [MCA] [1980]

(L. Hargrove - M. Kennedy - P. Rose)



The ads in the paper, the signs in the yard

This house ain't a home anymore

Gone are the lovers who lived there in love

It's empty with memories of all that love was.



Three bedrooms, two stories but they won't reveal

The two separate feelings two people conceal

We gave that all up, we sold everything

Down to our very last dream.



But there's still memories for sale

I've got no use for them

Memories for sale

Their priceless to me

But what I fear to lose

These memories for sale.



The Mr. and Mrs, are single again

No longer lovers, not even friends

We outgrew each other, we out lived our love

I'm empty with memories of all that love was.



I've got memories for sale

I've got no use for them

Memories for sale

Their priceless to me

But what I fear to lose

These memories for sale.
