Versuri Jim Ed Brown – How Long Does It Take A Memory To Drown lyrics

Say, it’s still snowing and the lines are down
If you like pull yourself up the chair and sit down
You’ll have to pardon me while I’ll try to drink this down
It seems the warmest thing left around
No, I hadn’t noticed that the fire was dead
I been feelin’ cold but I hadn’t thought about that yet
By the way, friend, what time is it?
How long does it take a memory to drown?

How long does it take for a love to die?
How long ‘til my feelings find a place where they can hide?
All my friends say that time’ll bring me round
How long does it take a memory to drown?

By the way, do you know if the mail’s run today?
No, I’m just watchin’ for some bills I need to pay
No, I don’t know just why it is she’s gonе
Lord knows I’ve never donе her wrong
Yes, I know it’s late, you hate to leave this way
No, thanks a lot, girl, but I guess I’d better stay
Won’t you try me again some brighter day
Right now I’ve got these memories to drown

How long does it take for a love to die?
How long ‘til my feelings find a place where they can hide?
All my friends say that time’ll bring me round
How long does it take a memory to drown?
