"Old Time Memory" Lyrics

Standin' round in a crowded room
Faces here bring me back to you
Leaving town slips into my head again
My friends say stay, but I wanna go
There's people here that I used to know
To the situation that you put me in
And I can tell myself that I will be gone
You can rest assure that I will be home

Cause I belong to the best of you
And you belong to the things I do
When a song is how I remember you
Cause I can tell you what it's like to be gone
When you're an old time memory
When you're an old time memory

Laying back with the headphones on
A pen in hand, takes me to the dawn
Paper worn to the thoughts of you again
Taking light of the time of night
A ballpoint fast for a working mind
Chorus playin' in my head again
Cause I can tell myself that I will be gone
But you can rest assure that I will be home

Cause I belong to the best of you
And you belong to the things I do
When song is how I remember you
Cause I can tell you what it's like to be gone
When you're an old time memory
When you're an old time memory

With the feelings that remain
And the promises in vain
And the memories are stained
For you, for you

Cause I can tell myself that I will be gone
And you can rest assure that I will be home

Cause I belong to the best of you
And you belong to the things I do
When a song is how I remember you
Cause I can tell you what it's like to be gone
Cause I can tell you what it's like to be gone
When you're an old time memory
