Lyrics Garth Brooks - More Than A Memory

People say she’s only in my head
Gonna take time but I’ll forget
Say I need to get on with my life
What they don’t realize
Is when you’re dialing six numbers
just to hang up the phone
Drivin’ cross town just to see if she’s home
Waking a friend in the dead of the night
Just to hear him say it’ll be alright
When you’re findin’ things to do to not 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 every word go up in smoke
Tore all her pictures off the wall
That ain’t helpin’ me at all

‘Cause when you’re talkin’ out loud to nothin’ but air
You look like hell and you just don’t care
You’re drinkin’ more than you ever drank
You’re sinking down lower than you ever sank
When you find yourself falling on your knees
Shakin’ your fist, beggin’ please
That’s when she’s more than a memory
She’s more, she’s more

People say she’s only in my head
Gonna take time but I’ll forget
But when she’s in every minute of every day
Every thought I think, every breath I take
When she’s everywhere, when she’s everything
She’s more than a memory
