"Sweet Memories" lyrics - THE EVERLY BROTHERS

THE EVERLY BROTHERS
"Sweet Memories"

My world is like a river as dark as it is deep
Night after night the past slips in and gathers all my sleep
My days are just an endless stream of emptiness to me
Filled only by the fleeting moments of her memories
Sweet memories
Sweet memories
Hmmmmmmmm

She slipped into the silence of my dreams last night
Wandering from room to room she's turning on each light
Her laughter spills like water from the river to the sea
I'm swept away from sadness clinging to her memories
Sweet memories
Sweet memories
Hmmmmmmmm
