Sweet Memories Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You keep selling me hopes and dreams
Of the things I will and cannot be
I can't sell these lies as I sit and try to listen to your alibi
But you couldn't hear me cry
I tried to do my best but I guess I wasn't good enough for you
Now there's no loving left
And I realize there's nothing left that I can do

[Chorus]
All I have are the memories of the way we used to be
All I have are the memories of the way we used to bе
Sweet memories of the way wе used to be

[Verse 2]
We used to communicate
Now it seems you have no time
And you said our love must wait
But you don't seem to understand
That the love we had was strong
Cause you used to be my man

[Bridge]
Baby I need to know why you feel you had to go
You just abandoned me and left me with these memories
[Chorus]
All I have are the memories of the way we used to be
All I have are the memories of the way we used to be
Sweet memories of the way we used to be

[Chorus]
All I have are the memories of the way we used to be
All I have are the memories of the way we used to be
Sweet memories of the way we used to be

[Short-Chorus]
Sweet memories of the way we used to be
Sweet memories of the way we used to be

[Chorus]
All I have are the memories of the way we used to be
All I have are the memories of the way we used to be

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
