Skeeter Davis - How In The World Do You Kill A Memory lyrics

The way I laugh my epitaph should read here lies a clown

Cause I'm the life of every party since you've left me down

There's no guy who doesn't try to take your place with me

They can't see that I'm not free of your memory

Cause it's standin' in the way of everything I try to do

Dear I never think to keep me from forgetting you

Pullin' in my heart caryin' it apart never gonna let me be

How in the world do you kill a memory

[ steel ]

Our photographs are torn in half to realize we're through

I burned your little notes of love and your letters tied in blue

I watch the fire the flames go higher but there in front of me

Surrounding ashes of our love stood your memory

It's standin' in the way...

Somebody tell me how in the world do you kill a memory
