A MEMORY WITH A NAME
Lyrics By Bob Gray
Music By Bob Gray & Colin Dobell - ©

She's alone now, not for the first time, but for the first time in over sixty years.

In one overwhelming heartbreak, she lost her loving soul mate.

Now she's lost in shock, too hurt to cry her tears.

He was her friend, and her companion. But now she's alone, her pain to much to bear.

For the man she's loved forever, has moved along without her.

A broken set, she's one-half of a pair.


CHORUS:
She's home but something's different, and won't ever be the same,

For the man she built a life with is just a memory with a name.

They swore they'd share forever, together all their life.

Now she sits alone, a widow, where there used to be a wife.


She takes his sweater, holds it so tightly, and prays with all her might to have him back.

That she might soon awaken, and find he was not taken.

But the nightmare's just beginning, and the tears aren't holding back.


Later, she's walking down the hallway, a hall she's walked a million times before.

She's alone with all her memories, and the quiet drives her crazy.

She's crumbling... so silently... She's sinking to the floor.

REPEAT CHORUS :

She's alone now, not for the first time, but for the first time in over sixty years.
