Well, I still remember that night when I met you The moon was hanging lonesome in the sky And you said you'd break my heart if I let you It turned out to be the only time you didn't love And it took years to learn to live without you But I suppose that it don't matter anyhow In spite of all the dreams I dreamed about you You're just a memory now My mother always said that you were easy And my brother seemed to think that I was dim But my heart, my eyes, and brother did deceive me When I turned around and saw you kissing him And I'd have died if I thought there was a heaven But I've learned to live another day somehow I believe you'd have gave your heart if you had one But you're just a memory now Well, that banker, he told us to keep our distance He didn't think we were ready for a home He just smiled and said you'd pay it off with interest So he dipped his pen and left me alone And it took years to learn to live without you But I suppose that it don't matter anyhow In spite of all the dreams I dreamed about you You're just a memory now And I'd have died if I thought there was a heaven But I've learned to live another day somehow I believe you'd have gave your heart if you had one But you're just a memory now
