We've been ten thousand miles we've been in fifteen states

Her eyes were hazel
And her teeth were slightly curved
She took my guitar and she began to play

Stuck right in my brain
You're just a memory of a love

You're just a memory of a love
That used to mean so much to me

And she use it well, yeah
Well she's one of a kind
Got a mind
She got a mind of her own, yeah
And she use it mighty fine
She drove a pick-up truck
Painted green and blue
The tires were wearing thin
She done a mile or two
When I asked her where she headed for
"Back up to Boston I'm singing in a bar"
I got to fly today on down to Baton Rouge
My nerves are shot already
The road ain't all that smooth
Across in Texas is the rose of San Antone
I keep on a feeling that gnawing in my bones
You're just a memory of a love

On the seventh day my eyes were all a glaze
We've been ten thousand miles
Been in fifteen states
Every woman seemed to fade out of my mind
I hit the bottle I hit the sack and cried
What's all this laughter on the 22nd floor
It's just some friends of mine
And they're busting down the door
Been a lonely night at the Memory Motel
You're just a memory girl, just a memory
And it used to mean so much to me
You're just a memory girl, you're just a memory
And it used to mean so much to me
You're just a memory girl, you're just a sweet old memory
And it used to mean so much to me
You're just a memory of a love that used to mean so much to me
She's got a mind of her own and she use it well yeah
Well she's one of a kind
