Chasing A Memory

Now, back in the day, I was high-test gasoline

Now, maybe I'm more like last year's kerosene

But I still burned, I still burn

You walked away while there was still a little left

Making me feel like a half-smoked cigarette

But I learned, yeah, I learned

Don't go chasing a memory

That's just your past dressed up like your destiny

You're better off pressing on and letting it be

And don't go chasing a memory

Oh, I remember the time you were the girl in every song

And in my mind, the one that can do no wrong

That image of you is never gone from my mind

Don't go chasing a memory

That's just your past dressed up like your destiny

You're better off pressing on and letting it be

And don't go chasing a memory

To catch it now would never be the same

I'm leaving you in that untouchable frame

Don't go chasing a memory

That's just your past dressed up like your destiny

You're better off pressing on and letting it be

Don't go chasing, don't go chasing

Don't go chasing a memory

That's just your past dressed up like your destiny

You're better off pressing on and letting it be

And don't go chasing a memory
