TAKE YOUR MEMORY


BEEN HERE BEFORE
DONT WANT THAT ROAD AGAIN
YOU GOT ME WALKING THIS FLOOR
WITH YOUR MEMORY THATS NO FREIND

TIME HEALS THEY SAY
BUT EVERY NOW AND THEN
YOU WALTZ RIGHT IN
AND BREAK THIS OLE HEART AGAIN


SO TAKE YOUR MEMORY
TAKE WHAT WE HAD
AND CLOSE THAT DOOR BEHIND
YOU CANT HAVE MY LOVE NO MORE
IM KEEPING IT ITS MINE
SO TAKE YOUR MEMORY
TAKE YOUR LOVE
AND MY PAIN IT WILL BE GONE
THERES NO ROOM LEFT HERE IN MY HEART
TAKE YOUR MEMORY AND MOVE ON

THIS LONESOME HOME
CAN MAKE A START THATS NEW
GONE ARE THOSE MEMORYS
THAT MADE IT COLD AND BLUE
GONE ARE THE TIMES
THAT WE ONCE SHARED
NOW HAPPINESS LIVES
THIRD DOOR UPSTAIRS

BRIDGE

SO TAKE YOUR MEMORY
TAKE WHAT WE HAD
AND CLOSE THAT DOOR BEHIND
YOU CANT HAVE MY LOVE NO MORE
IM KEEPING IT ITS MINE
SO TAKE YOUR MEMORY
TAKE YOUR LOVE
AND MY PAIN IT WILL BE GONE
THERES NO ROOM LEFT HERE IN MY HEART
TAKE YOUR MEMORY AND MOVE ON

Brad,

A classic Country theme, for sure... Was expecting a Cash sound (there are some real Tennessee Three sounding RealTracks), but got more of an early Jimmy Buffet feel/sound (his early stuff was much more Country flavored).

You have a good voice for this style.

The piano is mixed very low... with all the other stuff going on (fiddle and steel) I think I would simply take it out of the mix... (just a thought)..

"This lonesome home,
can make a start that's new.
Gone are those memories,
that made it cold and blue."

Love love love this part of the song! You have a knack for writing lyrics.

Nice one, Brad. Love the trad country vibe, esp the fiddles. Your vocal is perfect for this song, style. Keep 'em coming.

Hi Big Lad.
Found this tune catchy and easy to listen too.
I like the way you rhymed "then and in" in the chorus very clever.
Well done.
