I Don't Want to Be a Memory Songtext
von Lee Greenwood

I′ve been the one you talked to
When things were on your mind
I tried to be a friend to you
When friends were hard to find

Even been your lover
And gave myself to you
But now you're asking something
I just don′t wanna do

I don't wanna be - a me-mory
Someone you just - leave behind
I've always tried to be -
Everything you′d ever need
I don′t wanna be a memory


I've given you the freedom
When you felt the need to fly
And a shoulder you can lean on
A place where you could cry

Our time is meant so much
It′s more than I can face
To think that I could, somehow
Be someone you replace

And I don't wanna be - a mem-ory
Someone you just - leave behind
I′ve always tried to be -
Everything you'd ever need
Well, I don′t wanna be a memory

I don't wanna be - a mem-ory
Someone you just - leave behind
I've always tried to be -
Everything you′d ever need
I don′t wanna be a memory...
