WHAT YOU LEFT MY MEMORY
(Linda Hargrove)


Barbara Fairchild - 1976





I knew when it was over it'd take a little time
To forget about you and get you off my mind
I've been waitin' patiently for feelings to pass on
But what you left my mem'ry won't leave my heart alone

I knew my heart was broken, but I thought it would mend
And given just a little time I'd learn to love again
I shouldn't worry, but it's takin' me so long
And what you left my mem'ry won't leave my heart alone

Everytime I find someone I'd like to get to know
Your mem'ry whispers to my heart and tells it no, tells it no

I still believe I'll make it, but now I wonder when
It's hard to let another take the place that you were in
Funny how a feelin' can linger on and on
What you left my mem'ry won't leave my heart alone
Yeah, what you left my mem'ry won't leave my heart alone
