Lyrics
Kiss Your Memory Goodbye
Will Barton
Woke up this morning, with sunlight in my eyes
Overslept again... and the boss will wonder why
But I?m out of excuses? and I?m out of lies
Maybe it?s time to kiss your memory goodbye
Hell bent on leaving, no matter what I said
you didn?t love me when I thought you did
So we loaded your car and called it quits
Ain?t that the way it goes when love hits the bricks
Chorus:
Time I kissed your memory goodbye
And I sure as hell won?t cry
Preacher man said till death do us part
But I?m here to tell you life?s too short
To stay with someone who really doesn?t care
So its time to get your memory out of here
Chorus
Repeat Chorus (with last line change)
Now go on?fly
Gettin' up too often with whiskey on my breath
Lord knows I haven?t slept since you left
But now I feel your memory?s wanting to leave
So I?m going to set your memory free
I?m gonna get over you and the time has come
to open the front door and let your memory run
It can take off down the road after you
cause from here on out, darling we are through
Chorus
Repeat Chorus (with last line change)
And I sure as hell may cry
