Jean Shepard - Our Past Is In My Way lyrics

rate me

Our past is always present where my future is concerned

And I'd found the doors all locked to me no matter where I turn

I can't even build new mem'ries when your mem'ry's here to stay

And I cannot face the future for our past is in my way

I can't go out with someone else and do the things we'd do

And I can't even look ahead while looking back at you

I'm torn between tomorrow and the scars of yesterday

And I cannot face the future for our past is in my way

[ steel ]

I was so much stronger yesterday when you walked by my side

But I'm weaker for you left me here and my heart within me dies

What I was speak so much louder than what I am today

And I cannot face the future for our past is in my way
