Lyrics for Song: Last Night I Laid Your Memorey To Rest
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - John Anderson
It's been years,
Since you said goodbye.
When you left,
You left a memory
I thought would never die.
It took time,
But I found someone,
Who made me forget.
Last night, I laid your memory to rest!
Chorus:
There was candle light,
Flowers, soft music and wine.
When I held her in my arms,
You didn't cross my mind.
she helped me bury,
A love that was dead.
Last night,I laid yer memory to rest!
We laughed and talked,
Til dawns early light.
And when she asked me
If I loved her,
I didn't think twice.
I slipped your ring off my finger,
Without one regret.
Last night, I laid your memory to rest!
Chorus
Last night, I laid your memory to rest!
