[Verse 1]

I found a box of memories

Read a letter dropped a tear where you signed your name

And turning the page smearing the ink and the love always

Girl I always start this way

Then I end up in a bottle screaming out your name

And punching the walls, carrying on like I've gone insane

And in the mirror I can see the man who just shook his head with no remorse

And watched an angel crying tears packing all of her things as she walked out the door

[Chorus]

'Cause there aren’t nothing like a memory

When it’s coming on strong like a hurricane

How can love like that just up and walk away

It’s killing me baby

It’s got me pouring up another drink

Bourbons hitting me hard like a freight train

With my back against a wall or on my knees

When the worst of your memory gets the best of me

[Verse 2]

Well I remember it all too well

Riding 441 down to Milledgeville

Crossing the bridge as the sun set on Lake Sinclair

I couldn’t wait to see your smile but all I saw was tears in your pretty eyes

And that said it all, it was all downhill from there

And I remember you saying baby please don’t give up on me

Aw but baby this stubborn man is going to lie in the bed he made

[Chorus]

'Cause there aren’t nothing like a memory

When it’s coming on strong like a hurricane

How can love like that just up and walk away

It’s killing me baby

It’s got me pouring up another drink

Bourbons hitting me hard like a freight train

With my back against a wall or on my knees

When the worst of your memory gets the best of me

'Cause there aren’t nothing like a memory

When it’s coming on strong like a hurricane

How can love like that just up and walk away

It’s killing me baby

It’s got me pouring up another drink

Bourbons hitting me hard like a freight train

With my back against a wall or on my knees

When the worst of your memory gets the best of me

[Outro]

Whoa gets the best of me
