Misty Memories
Brenda Lee · Other Songs - Brenda Lee
Though it's been so long, since you've been gone
Every time I hear your name, my heart cries.
And misty memories fill my eyes
I thought I could live without you, long enough
I'd see the day when you don't cross my mind
And if I could learn to love another long enough
I'd leave those misty memories all behind.
Misty memories they leave it all
And it's been so long since you've been gone
Every time, I hear your name you know my heart cries.
And misty memories, fill my eyes
Yes every time I hear your name my heart still cries.
And misty memories fill my eyes...
