Running from a memory

Running From A Memory
writer Ken Lillie

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bartender put a cold one down
I'm mighty thirsty from working out
The first two or three set me on the go
Let me tell you what she's all about

Know I aint never ran from anything
I've stood my ground thru thick and thin
Right know I can't seem to catch my breath
Where do I stop where do I began

Now I'm running from a memory
Can't escape that look she saved for me
And all the love she gave so willingly
Now I'm running from a memory

Why I cheated and I lied to her
When all I needed was always there
I whatched her slowly walk away from me
And left me running straight into nowhere

She was always there for many years
Now I'll exercise my right to beg and plead
There's so much distance between me and her
Another cold one gives me energy

How I'd love to take a moonlit walk
Relax on a beach,listen to her talk

Now I'm running from a memory
Can't escape that look she saved for me
And all the love she gave so willingly
Now I'm running from a memory
