Every night I go down to this same little joint Fill up my glass till I reach the point, past remembering Where the music is loud, the conversation is free A dance or two with someone to keep me from remembering The fool I've been the hurt I've caused The good woman that I loved and lost For she's constantly with me in memory I go home but I couldn't sleep And after hours I'd be walkin' the streets remembering A good woman's love is hard to find And my woman's love was just that kind And I'm the reason that she's gone today I miss her so and the price that I pay is remembering I take her to sleep in my dreams every night Then start all over in the morning light remembering The way it was when she loved me Then like a fool how I carelessly Broke her heart Then watched my world fall apart I'd give this world for yesterday Just to have her love me the way I remember Just to have her love me the way I remember
