Old Time Memory Lyrics
Standing 'round in a crowded room
Your face is here bring me back to you
Leaving town slips into my head again
My friends say stay but I want to go
There’s people here that I used to know
To the situation that you put me in
And I can tell myself that I will be gone
You can rest assure that I will be home
Cause I belong to the best of you
And you belong to the things I do
Well this song is how I’ll remember you
Cause I can tell you what its like to be gone
When you're an old time memory
When you're an old time memory
Laying back with the headphones on
A pen in hand takes me to the dawn
Paper worn to the thoughts of you again
Taking light of the time of night
A ballpoint fast full of working mind
Chorus playing in my head again
Cause I can tell myself that I will be gone
But you can rest assure that I will be home
Cause I belong to the best of you
And you belong to the things I do
Well this song is how I’ll remember you
Cause I can tell you what its like to be gone
When you're an old time memory
When you're an old time memory
With the feelings that remain
And the promises in vain
And the memories are stained
For you, for you
Because I can tell myself that I will be gone
And you can rest assure that I will be home
Cause I belong to the best of you
And you belong to the things I do
Well this song is how I’ll remember you
Cause I can tell you what its like to be gone
Cause I can tell you what its like to be gone
When you're an old time memory
Your face is here bring me back to you
Leaving town slips into my head again
My friends say stay but I want to go
There’s people here that I used to know
To the situation that you put me in
And I can tell myself that I will be gone
You can rest assure that I will be home
And you belong to the things I do
Well this song is how I’ll remember you
Cause I can tell you what its like to be gone
When you're an old time memory
When you're an old time memory
A pen in hand takes me to the dawn
Paper worn to the thoughts of you again
Taking light of the time of night
A ballpoint fast full of working mind
Chorus playing in my head again
Cause I can tell myself that I will be gone
But you can rest assure that I will be home
And you belong to the things I do
Well this song is how I’ll remember you
Cause I can tell you what its like to be gone
When you're an old time memory
When you're an old time memory
And the promises in vain
And the memories are stained
For you, for you
And you can rest assure that I will be home
And you belong to the things I do
Well this song is how I’ll remember you
Cause I can tell you what its like to be gone
Cause I can tell you what its like to be gone
When you're an old time memory

I think this song is about a girl who he really loved, and he really can't get over, and in a way he doesn't want because he likes her memory. And he knows that she feels the same, int he line he goes "and i belong ot the best of you, and you belong to teh things i do" it is as if he is asying you still remember me as a good thing, and he is in a way still doing things he would for her. I could be totally misinterpretting it but that is hwo i feel about ti.
