I Can't Stop Your Memory

Of Montreal · Cherry Peel [1997]

I can't stop your memory from breaking my heart.

Devils were laughing so loud,

I couldn't hear the radio.



In the dark bags become,

Sneaking devils waiting to pounce

And display impressive claws.

I might wink at them before they land.



I can hear my heart beat

across the room behind the closet door

When I'm laying in my bed in the dark.

I can't gather all the love I need when I need it.

I'm not mad I understand that that's the price,

And all is forgiven in the end

If your heart was in the right place.

If you lived an honest life, if you tried



I can't stop your memory from breaking my heart

Devils were laughing so loud,

I couldn't hear the radio.
