More Than a Memory

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 'Cause when you're dialing 6 numbers just to hang up the phone Driving cross town just to see if she's home Waking a friend in the dead of the night Just to hear him say it's gonna be alright When you're finding things to do not to fall asleep 'Cause 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 helping me at all 'Cause when you're talking out loud but nobody's there You look like hell and you just don't care Drinking more than you ever drank Sinking down lower than you ever sank When you find yourself falling down upon your knees Praying to God, begging Him please That's when she's more than a memory She's more, she's more 'Cause when you're dialing her number just to hang up the phone Driving cross town just to see if she's home Waking a friend in the dead of the night Just to hear him say it's gonna be alright When you're finding 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
