You Can't Put Your Arms Around A Memory

It doesn't pay to try all the smart boys know why It doesn't mean I didn't try I'll just never know why It isn't 'cause I'm all alone Oh, baby, you're not home And when I'm home Big deal, I'm still alone It's so restless, I am, Beat my head against a pole Try to knock some sense, down 'side my bones And even though it don't show, Those guys are so old You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory Don't try, don't try You're just a basket case And you got no name Could you live with me? Go on and say And even though they don't show the scars aren't so old You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory Don't try, don't try
