Between an Old Memory and Me
Travis Tritt · Lovin' Side [2002]
In a little club downtown
Playing songs on the jukebox
And pouring whiskey down
When I heard a sweet voice saying
Would you like some company
I had to tell her this is just between
An old memory and me
All my friends tell me
That I'm a fool for holding on
And I know they're trying to help me
But I've been a fool too long
And I don't wanna talk about it
So why can't they just let me be
This is just between
An old memory and me
And I'm not hurting anybody
As far as I can see
I just need to be alone sometimes
While she goes walking through my mind
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Instrumental
Oh, and I'm not hurting anybody
As far as I can see
I just need to be alone sometimes
While she goes walking through my mind
I don't wanna talk about it
So why can't they just let me be
This is just between
An old memory and me
Oh yeah,
This is just between
An old memory and me
Ooh Yeah...
