Hank Locklin Sweet Memories Lyrics

Sweet Memories Lyrics

My world is like a river

As dark as it is deep

Night after night the past slips in

And gathers all my sleep

My days are just an endless string

Of emptiness to me

Filled only by fleeting moments

Of her memory

Sweet memories....

Sweet memories....

She slipped into the darkness 

Of my dreams last night

Wandering from room to room

She's turning on each light

Her laughter spills like water

From the river to the sea

Lord I'm swept away from sandness

Clinging to her memory

Sweet memories....

Sweet memories....
