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

I can hear you smiling on the phone

Bet you thought that I'd be crying

Go on, tell yourself I done you wrong

But we both know you'd be lying

We don't have to have a reason

If your heart is set on leaving

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 being free

Is it worth all that you're losing?

It may be over, but it's not ending

'Cause there's one thing you're forgetting

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

Just surrender, 'cause you can't get away

You never can be free

From a memory like I'm gonna be
