THE DESERT ROSE BAND
"Just A Memory"
(Hillman-Jorgenson)

I said baby are you crazy
I don't know what's come over you
She said baby sure don't love you
For making me feel like I do

Stray words from a stranger
Tears falling down
Like a dull knife in a fresh wound
This poison is spreading around

It's just a memory from the wild side
Another life from long ago
My hands are tied,
My soul is bound to a voice
I can't control

Now baby will you listen
There's more than meets the eye
This is threatening what we live for
Is this suspicion worth a lie

What is this tense, I do mean present
Cause you're haunted by the past
And the truth is all that matters
Our vows were made to last

It's just a memory from the wild side
Another life from long ago
My hands are tied,
My soul is bound to a voice
I can't control

Turn it loose, this is growing old
What's the use let the dice roll
Where they may, two hearts lay
Where there's faith
