Old Memories Never Die

(album: Burning Bridges - 1967)

Old memories make me cry
And torture me each day
Old memories never die
And they don't fade away

Not so very long ago
We said our goodbyes
And I guess I'll never know
Why I let an angel cry

Now I have heard the young at heart
Are much too blind to see
But if I'd listen to my heart
You'd still be here with me

Old memories make me cry
And torture me each day
Old memories never die
And they don't fade away

If I knew then what I know now
Each time I kissed your lips
The greatest treasure in the world
Was at my fingertips

So don't leave me in memories
Of things I didn't do
Although I try I can't deny
I'm still in love with you

Old memories make me cry
And torture me each day
Old memories never die
And they don't fade away
They won't fade away
