(Mel Tillis - Wayne P. Walker)

(Burning mem'ries burning mem'ries
Memories of you that I can't lose)

Tonight I'm burning old love letters
photographs and memories of you
Hoping somehow I'll feel better
and when the smoke is gone I won't want you.

Burning mem'ries teardrops fall while I am
Burning mem'ry burning all the memories of you that I can't lose.

My heart to you no longer matters
and I can't live alone with memories
Into the fire those dreams you've shattered
And when the smoke is gone then I'll be free.

Burning mem'ries teardrops fall while I am
Burning mem'ry burning all the memories of you that I can't lose...
