Just A Memory
(Chris Hillman/John Jorgenson)


I said baby are you crazy
I don't know what's come over you
She said baby sure don't love you
for making me feel like I do

Stray words from a stranger
Tears falling down
Like a dull knife in a fresh wound
This poison is spreading around

It's just a memory from the wild side
Another life from long ago
My hands are tied, my soul is bound to a voice
I can't control

Now baby will you listen
There's more than meets the eye
This is threatening what we live for
Is this suspicion woth a lie

What is this tense, I do mean present
cause you're haunted by the past
And the truth is all that matters
Our vows were made to last

It's just a....

Turn it loose, this is growing old
What's the use let the dice roll
Where they may, two hearts lay
where there's faith
