"Chasing A Memory" lyrics

Now, back in the day, I was high-test gasoline
Now, maybe I'm more like last year's kerosene
But I still burned, I still burn

You walked away while there was still a little left
Making me feel like a half-smoked cigarette
But I learned, yeah, I learned

Don't go chasing a memory
That's just your past dressed up like your destiny
You're better off pressing on and letting it be
And don't go chasing a memory

Oh, I remember the time you were the girl in every song
And in my mind, the one that can do no wrong
That image of you is never gone from my mind

Don't go chasing a memory
That's just your past dressed up like your destiny
You're better off pressing on and letting it be
And don't go chasing a memory

To catch it now would never be the same
I'm leaving you in that untouchable frame

Don't go chasing a memory
That's just your past dressed up like your destiny
You're better off pressing on and letting it be
Don't go chasing, don't go chasing

Don't go chasing a memory
That's just your past dressed up like your destiny
You're better off pressing on and letting it be
And don't go chasing a memory
