"Sweet Memories" lyrics

Vince Gill & Paul Franklin Lyrics

"Sweet Memories"
(originally by Andy Williams)

My world is like a river
As dark as it is deep
Night after night the past slips in
Gathers all my sleep

My days are just an endless stream of emptiness for me
Filled only by the fleeting moments of her memories

Sweet memories
Those sweet memories
I'm clinging to her memories

She slipped into the silence of my dreams last night
Wandering from room to room turning on each light

Her laughter spills like water from the river to the sea
I'm swept away from sadness clinging to her memories

Sweet memories
Those sweet memories
I'm clinging to her memories

Sweet memories
Those sweet memories
I'm clinging to her memories
I'm clinging to her memories
