Too Many Memories All Around

Jean Shepard · Heart, We Did All That We Could [1967]

(Carol Johnson)



Well, there's the chair in which you sat

When you told me this was goodbye

And there's the lamp I turned down low

So you wouldn't see me cry.



And there's the door that you walked out

Because a new, new love you found

And that is why I can't forget you

Too many mem'ries all around

Too many mem'ries all around.



Now there's the TV we used to watch

And the clock that kept the time

And there's the phone we used to call

And the table where we dined.



And there's the drapes I closed so tight

When that old, old song went down

And that is why I can't forget you

Too many mem'ries all around

Too many mem'ries all around.



Now there's the steps that you walked down

When you walked away from me

And theres the gate that led you out

But you left your memory.



Well, there's the tracks you left behind

When you left left this old town

And that is why I can't forget you

Too many mem'ries all around

Too many mem'ries all around...
