Memories Thelma Houston

You fool yourself with your own lies
They boomerang and caught you by surprise
And so, you've taken all the love we shared
Left me alone, with no one there

But memories, our memories
Are all I have to hold
My memories, my memories
Of a love that lost its soul

You try to laugh as you pretend
That you'll still be here as a friend of mine
As if a friend is what I need tonight
To keep me warm, and safe and sound

But memories, sweet sweet memories
Won't leave me alone
My memories, keeping my memories
Of a love that lost its soul

You disappear into the foggy night
A raging love, that now seems so polite
And as a mist engulfs you, so do I
Lonely footsteps, oh they never lie

My memories, my memories
Are all I have to hold
My memories, oh sweet memories
Of a love that lost its soul
