《Love In A Memory(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Love In A Memory - Nanci Griffith

[00:00:13] She sleeps alone in the warm nights of Memphis

[00:00:20] Where the Peabody Hotel meets the velveteen sky

[00:00:27] She sings like the waves in the cool Mississippi

[00:00:35] That brought her from St Paul in '75

[00:00:42] And men come to court her

[00:00:45] With roses and sweet wine

[00:00:50] Where hands cross the ivories

[00:00:53] From six until nine

[00:00:56] She sings away sorrows each night

[00:00:59] When she leaves him

[00:01:03] She goes home alone

[00:01:06] She's not the marrying kind

[00:01:09] And love is a memory that she'll always hold

[00:01:16] 'Cause love in a memory never grows old

[00:01:22] Why she did leave him well nobody knows

[00:01:27] And love in a memory never grows old

[00:02:09] And he works the toll booth

[00:02:12] On the New Jersey turnpike

[00:02:17] The ring on his finger grows cold to the bone

[00:02:23] His sons were young dreamers

[00:02:26] Who cheat on their own wives

[00:02:30] He still dreams of St Paul

[00:02:32] When he's cheating alone

[00:02:36] Love is a memory that he'll always hold

[00:02:42] 'Cause love in a memory never grows old

[00:02:48] Why she did leave him well nobody knows

[00:02:54] Love in a memory never grows old
