John Landry When Will Your Memory Let Me Go Lyrics

When will your memory let me go?

I rolled out of bed, and washed m'face and combed my hair,
I could swear I could see you right behind me in the bathroom mirror.
And if I wound up in Timbuktu, how come I know that I'd still see you.
And if I had a lobotomy, the thought of you would still be there.

When will your memory let me go, nippin' at my heels everywhere I go.
I won't ever get lonely with your shadow always around me.
Tell me when will your memory let me go.

I know how you hated that smoky old honky tonk bar.
Full of rowdy old boys and beers and loud guitars.
I thought it was a sacred place where I never would see your face,
But every time I turn around, Baby there you are.

Chorus
When will your memory let me go
nippin' at my heels everywhere I go.
I can never get lonely with your shadow always around me.
Tell me when will your memory let me go
When will it let me, when will it let me go
(When will it let me go)
When will it let me, when will it let me go

Even a fifty-seven Chevy reminds me of you,
With the curves and chrome that shine the way you do.
But that car is history, just like you and me,
Up on blocks and it's drivin' days are through.

Chorus
When will your memory let me go
nippin' at my heels everywhere I go.
I won't ever get lonely
with your shadow always around me.
Tell me when will your memory let me go

When will your memmory let me,
when will your memory let me,
When will your memory let me go
