Only A Memory Lyrics
My mind is filled with thoughts of you
I think about the days of two
I search the room but you're not there
Your perfume lingers everywhere
But it's
Only a memory
Of what our love was going to be
Only a memory
Broken bits of you and me
Only a memory
Only a memory
In a world of pain I have no peer
You fade away and disappear
And now I have to learn the game
Where no one wins or takes the blame
But it's
Only a memory
Of what our love was going to be
Only a memory
Now that we are history
Only a memory
Only a memory
But it's
Only a memory
Of what our love was going to be
Only a memory
Broken bits of you and me
Only a memory
Only a memory
Why should it matter if I cry
I sit around and wonder why
Now I feel much too weak to live
And I've got nothing left to give
Now it's
Only a memory
Of what our love was going to be
Only a memory
Broken bits of you and me
Only a memory
Only a memory
Only a memory
I think about the days of two
I search the room but you're not there
Your perfume lingers everywhere
But it's
Of what our love was going to be
Only a memory
Broken bits of you and me
Only a memory
Only a memory
You fade away and disappear
And now I have to learn the game
Where no one wins or takes the blame
But it's
Of what our love was going to be
Only a memory
Now that we are history
Only a memory
Only a memory
Only a memory
Of what our love was going to be
Only a memory
Broken bits of you and me
Only a memory
Only a memory
I sit around and wonder why
Now I feel much too weak to live
And I've got nothing left to give
Now it's
Of what our love was going to be
Only a memory
Broken bits of you and me
Only a memory
Only a memory
Only a memory

He is reminiscing on a past relationship. It's over, and he wonders what it could have been, wishing it was still there... but as the song title says, it's only a memory.
"In a world of pain I have no peer"
What a great line!
