Far away from home without a toothbrush or a comb I'm soakin' up the rain Lookin' like a bum who isn't clean enough to thumb A ride or ride a train I think about the feelin' only yesterday was real But then I know the pain Of bein' without you to love, but I doubt you Can feel it the same When you claim that no one's to blame And walk away with what's his name Walkin' half-asleep I have to concentrate to keep Myself from fallin' down I know I could erase this sad expression on my face If I were just a clown Wish I had a destination better than a railroad station Leavin' town I'm feelin' so lonely, without you I'm only The fool who was wrong All along to think I belonged When he's was the one who sang your song Mister Memory That's the name you gave to me If I have to go Then I guess I'll never know Why, babe? Why, babe? Thinkin' of the phone that didn't have the dial tone I lost my only dime Tryin' to say a word for love, you never really hear a word That didn't rhyme I guess it's only fate that kind of made me hesitate When I was out of time There's no use pretending a happier ending While all I can do without you Is know what we knew Before you told me we were through Mister Memory That's the name you gave to me If I have to go Then I guess I'll never know Why, babe? Why, babe? Mister Memory That's the name you gave to me If I have to go
