Remembering

Every night I go down to this same little joint
 Fill up my glass till I reach the point past remembering
 Where the music is loud the conversation is free
 A dance or two with someone to keep me from remembering
 The fool I've been the hurt I've caused the good woman that I loved and lost
 For she's constantly with me in memory
 I go home but I couldn't sleep and after hours I'd be walkin' the streets remembering
 A good woman's love is hard to find and my woman's love was just that kind
 And I'm the reason that she's gone today
 I miss her so and the price that I pay is remembering
 I take her to sleep in my dreams every night
 Then start all over in the morning light remebering
 The way it was when she loved me then like a fool how I carelessly
 Broke her heart then watched my world fall apart
 I'd give this world for yesterday just to have her love me the way I remember
 Just to have her love me the way I remember
