Tanya Tucker — A Memory Like I'm Gonna Be lyrics

Lyrics

I can hear you smilin' on the 'phone
Bet you thought that I’d be cryin'
Go on, tell yourself I done you wrong
But we both know you’d be lyin'
We don’t have to have a reason
If your heart is set on leavin'
To remember on some rainy day
A little simple word or thought
Or a birthday card, I bought
Just surrender, 'cause you can’t get away
You never can be free
From a memory like I’m gonna be That greener grass you think you see
Hah, is just a high-heeled illusion
Better count the cost of bein' free
Is it worth all that you’re losin'?
It may be over, but it’s not ending
'Cause there’s one thing you’re forgetting
An' you’ll remember on some rainy day
The little things we used to do Like that night in Baton Rouge
Just surrender, 'cause you can’t get away
You never can be free
From a memory like I’m gonna be When it all comes back someday
You’ll be surprised on some lonely night
When you close your eyes
Just surrender, 'cause you can’t get away
You never can be free
From a memory like I’m gonna be Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(From a memory)
Just surrender, 'cause you can’t get away
You never can be free
From a memory like I’m gonna be
