more than a memory
Thursday, September 20th, 2007 People say she’s only in my head
It’s gonna take time but I’ll forget
They say I need to get on with my life
But they don’t realize
Is when you’re dialing 6 numbers just to hang up the phone
Driving cross town just to see if she’s home
Waking a friend in the dead of the night
Just to hear him say “it’s gonna be alright”
When you find the things to do not to fall asleep
Cause you know she will be there in your dreams
That’s when she’s more than a memory
Took a match to everything she ever wrote
Watched her words go up in smoke
Tore all her pictures off the wall
They ain’t helping me at all
‘Cause when you’re talking out loud but nobody’s there
You look like hell and you just don’t care
Drinking more than you ever drank
Sinking down lower than you ever sank
When you find yourself falling down upon your knees
Praying to God, begging him “please”
That’s when she’s more than a memory
She’s more
She’s more
Cause when you’re dialing her number just to hang up the phone
Driving cross town just to see if she’s home
Waking a friend in the dead of the night
Just to hear him say “it’s gonna be alright”
When you find the things to do not to fall asleep
Cause you know she’s waiting in your dreams
That’s when she’s more than a memory
People say she’s only in my head
It’s gonna take time but I’ll forget
