More Than a Memory - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

People say she's only in my head

It's gonna take time but I'll forget

They say I need to get on with my life

But they don't realize

Is when you're dialin' six numbers just to hang up the phone

Drivin' 'cross town just to see if she's home

Wakin' a friend in the dead of the night

Just to hear him say it's gonna be alright

When you're findin' things to do not to fall asleep

Because you know she'll be there in your dreams

That's when she's

More than a memory

Took a match to everything she ever wrote

Watched her words go up in smoke

Tore all her pictures off the wall

That ain't helpin' me at all

'Cause when you're talkin' out loud but nobody's there

You look like hell and you just don't care

Drinkin' more than you ever drank

Sinkin' down lower than you ever sank

When you find yourself fallin' down upon your knees

Prayin' to God, beggin' him, please

That's when she's

More than a memory

She's more

'Cause when you're dialin' her number just to hang up the phone

Drivin' 'cross town just to see if she's home

Wakin' a friend in the dead of night

Just to hear him say it's gonna be alright

When you're findin' things to do not to fall asleep

'Cause you know she's waiting in your dreams

That's when she's more than a memory

People say she's only in my head

It's gonna take time but I'll forget
