Memory Trick

I can't remember dates, I can't remember names

But I could retrace every line of your face

I can't remember who, I can't remember when

But I remember what it's like to hold you against me

Forget all my algebra, my history too

But I'll never forget the geography of you

So when I feel it on the air blue

I can live in a memory

Though you are gone, life will go on 'cause I've got

My mind to attend me

Though you're away, I'll be okay

When I need you close, I'll just hit the replay

I know that your pity comes free

Don't worry 'bout me

Me and my wonderful memory

I can't remember why, I can't remember how

But I can recall perfectly the shape of your mouth

I can't remember forms or figures or facts

But I remember just the way your body reacts to me

Forget all my physics, my arithmetic too

But I can remember the chemistry of you

And when I doubt that it was all true

I can live in a memory

Though you are gone, life will go on 'cause I've got

My mind to attend me

Though you're away, I'll be okay

When I need you close, I'll just hit the replay

I know that your pity comes free

But don't worry 'bout me

Me and my wonderful memory

I can't remember why I was so afraid

Memories selective and only gold ones stay

So I live in a memory

Though you are gone, life will go on 'cause I've got

My mind to attend me

Though you're away, I'll be okay

When I need you close, I'll just hit the replay

I know that your pity comes free

Don't worry 'bout me

Me and my wonderful memory

I've got a hell of a memory

A wonderful memory
