I found a box of memories, read a letter
Dropped a tear where you signed your name
And turnin' the page, smearing the ink and the love always
Girl, I always start this way
Then I end up in a bottle screaming out your name
And punching the walls, carrying on like I've gone insane
In the mirror I can see the man
Who just shook his head with no remorse
Watched an angel crying tears
Packing all of her things, as she walked out the door
Cause there ain't nothing like a memory
When it's coming on strong like a hurricane
How can love like that just stop and walk away
It's killing me baby, it's got me pouring up another drink
Bourbon's hitting me hard like a freight train
With my back against the wall or on my knees
When the worst of your memory gets the best of me
I remember it all too well, riding 441 down the Milledgeville
And crossing the bridge as the sun set on Lake Sinclair
I couldn't wait to see your smile
But all I saw was tears in your pretty eyes
That said it all, it was all downhill from there
And I remember you sayin' 'baby, please don't give up on me'
Oh but baby this stubborn man is gonna lie in the bed he made
Cause there ain't nothing like a memory
When it's coming on strong like a hurricane
How can love like that just stop and walk away
It's killing me baby, it's got me pouring up another drink
Bourbon's hitting me hard like a freight train
With my back against the wall or on my knees
When the worst of your memory gets the best of me
Cause there ain't nothing like a memory
When it's coming on strong like a hurricane
How can love like that just stop and walk away
It's killing me baby, it's got me pouring up another drink
Bourbon's hitting me hard like a freight train
With my back against the wall or on my knees
When the worst of your memory gets the best of me
Whooa, gets the best of me
