I close my eyes, but my mind still pictures you There you are again, as big as life And here I am Reaching out to try to touch a love I lost Still refusing to believe you're really gone Oh, making love to a memory ain't really love Making love to a memory ain't making love At all Tears fill my eyes, but when I cry, I see you there Just the way you were when you were here Here with me Oh, but now that you are gone, I just pretend Another night in bed, alone again Oh, making love to a memory ain't really love Making love to a memory ain't making love At all Making love to a memory ain't really love Making love to a memory ain't making love No, no, no, no, my baby, I need you here, I want you back (Making love to a memory ain't really love) I know I didn't treat you that bad, not for you to leave me (Making love to a memory ain't making love) Not for you to leave me, to leave me, to leave me (Making love to a memory ain't really love) No, my baby, no (Making love to a memory ain't making love)
