All I Can Be Is A Sweet Memory lyrics

All I can be is a sweet memory 
That drifts through your mind from time to time 
I could never be more than a knock on your door. 
Just a shadow that's gone with the sunshine. 

For you know I'm not free and I never can be 
And you're bound to get restless in time. 
All I can be is a sweet memory 
That drifts through your mind. 

Tonight I'll she'd a silent tear while lying here with you. 
The sands of time have trickled down to just a precious few. 
You're young and so beautiful and I'm so glad I'm here 
But the ending painfully clear. 

All I can be is a sweet memory 
Of someone you had to leave behind. 
Who loves you and needs you but never could give you 
A ring for your finger so fine. 

So tonight let's just borrow one memory for tomorrow 
'Til we find we've run out of time. 
All I can be is a sweet memory 
That drifts through your mind. 

All I can be is a sweet memory 
That drifts through your mind.
