Just a Memory Songtext
von Elvis Costello & Burt Bacharach

Layin′ about, lyin' in bed
Maybe it was something that I thought I′d said
With the tempo of today and the temptation of tomorrow
I don't know if I could give you anything but sorrow

They stay alive this late on Radio Five
But the pen that I write with, won't tell the truth
′Cause the moments that I can′t recall
Are the moments that you treasure
Better take another measure for measure


Losing you is just a memory
Memories don't mean that much to me
Losing you is just a memory
Memories don′t mean that much to me

Now you're here, I′m here too
Could be this easy for me and you?

Losing you is just a memory
Memories don't mean that much to me
Losing you is just a memory
Memories don′t mean that much to me

Lyin' about layin' in bed
Maybe it was something that I thought I′d said
