More than a memory lyrics Garth Brooks

More than a memory

People say she's only in my head
It's gonna take time but I'll forget
Say I need to get on with my life
But they don't realize

'cause when you're dialing 6 numbers
just to hang up the phone
Driving cross town just to see if she's home
Waking a friend in the dead of the night
just to hear him say it'll gonna be alright
When you're finding things to do
at night, not to fall asleep
'cause you know she'll be there in your dreams
that's when she's more than a memory

took a match to everything she ever wrote
watched her words go up in smoke
tore all the pictures off the wall
that ain't helping me at all

'Cause when you're talking out loud
but nobody's there
you look like hell and you just don't care
drinking more than you ever drank
and sinking down lower than you ever sank
when you find yourself falling down upon your knees
beggin' to God, beggin' him "please"
that's when she's more than a memory

she's more, she's more

'cause when you're dialing 6 numbers
just to hang up the phone
Driving cross town just to see if she's home
Waking a friend in the dead of the night
just to hear him say it'll gonna be alright
When you're finding things to do
at night, not to fall asleep
'cause you know she's waiting in your dreams
that's when she's more than a memory

People say she's only in my head
It's gonna take time but I'll forget...
