A Certain Kind of Memory

To make a certain kind of memory

That you cling to till you're dead and gone

I try my best to forget but I just can't shake it

I didn't give you my heart just to break it

Look away, my love

Look away from me

After you have had your way

There'll be nothing left to see

And I've wept at what my father said

If he knew that I had came aorund here

But oh, the wrath of God

Is all that I truly have to fear

Look away, my love

Look away from me

After you have had your way

There'll be nothing left to see

Now the dust will never settle

The wind blows hot across the sweeping plains

And I'll be that single girl

For my days that do remain

Oh, I guess you're not here and your fathers

In the valley, there which you were born

Could have been the one that's in your arms

Is the girl that I will forevermore

Look away, my love

Look away from me

After you have had your way

There'll be nothing left to see

After you have had your way

There'll be nothing left to see
