Why Did You Leave Your Memories Behind

I've been trying to erase, for a long long time All these happy memories, I have of you But every time I think, that I'm finally over you When my frown, has turned upside down I close my eyes, and again you're right there on my mind Oh! why, why did you leave your memories behind I keep trying to move on, I keep trying to forget you But every road I walk, every path I take Leads my mind, right back to you Oh! it's so hard to go on, without you around For every dark alley, every dark highway You seem to be right there, on my mind to stay Now If memories were like raindrops, falling from the sky I believe the sun, woul have dried them all away And If teardrops, were like morning dew drops, when I cry The winds would have dried them, from my face But each waking hour, you're right there on my mind Oh! why, why did you leave your memories behind Today, I still see you walking away, into the sun I still hear those words, you said, through your tears Guess I'll never be alone, guess my happy days are done I know you'll never return, guess my life has been run "Cause when I close my eyes, you're right there on my mind Oh! why, why did you leave your memories behind
