《I Just Came Home to Count the Memories》歌词

[00:00:00] I Just Came Home To Count The Memories (Album Version) - John Anderson (约翰·安德森)

[00:00:12] I saw roses choking in the grass flaking paint

[00:00:17] In a broken window pane

[00:00:24] A mailbox barely standin' by the driveway

[00:00:28] I can almost read the name

[00:00:36] A swing set and forgotten toys

[00:00:38] Where little girls and boys played happy games

[00:00:47] Everything I ever care about is gone now

[00:00:51] But all the memories still remain

[00:00:58] The old man from the house across the street asked

[00:01:02] How's it goin' and I said fine

[00:01:10] But the expression on his face would make me think

[00:01:14] That he could almost read my mind

[00:01:21] That little Johnson boy from down the road

[00:01:24] Was asking if the kids could come and play

[00:01:33] Lord I wish I could have told them yes

[00:01:36] But I just said I guess son not today

[00:01:43] I just came home to count the memories

[00:01:49] That I've been carrying in my mind

[00:01:54] I just came home to count the memories

[00:02:00] Of a better day and time

[00:02:08] And all the birds that sang a pretty song

[00:02:10] They aren't singing like they did when we were here

[00:02:19] 'Cause there's no happiness in music

[00:02:22] When somebody isn't close enough to care

[00:02:31] I picked a raged daisy from its home

[00:02:34] Out in the corner of the yard

[00:02:42] She loves me she loves me not

[00:02:46] Now I don't have to wonder anymore

[00:02:52] I just came home to count the memories

[00:02:58] That I've been counting in my mind

[00:03:04] I just came home to count the memories

[00:03:10] I guess it's time to say goodbye
