DOLLY PARTON - Sometimes an Old Memory Gets in My Eye lyrics

rate me

(Bill Owens)

Like someone drowning I reach for a straw

Grasping for love where there's no love at all

Slowly I'm sinking as time drags by

And sometimes an old memory gets in my eye.

I struggle for strenght to face the dawn

And I'm freezing to death without you to keep me warm

I hold an arm full of nothing close to my side

And sometimes an old memory gets in my eye.

Sometimes an old memory gets in my eye

And when it comes it's hard to keep my eyes dry

Don't think you see tears for I never cry

But sometimes an old memory gets in my eye.

Yes sometimes an old memory gets in my eye...
