Memory Is A Strange Thing Lyrics - Singles - Bamboozlers

words and music: Steven Rhodes 

There was always that old man when a little boy 

You don't go near his house or even close 

And you passed his house you went across to the other side 

He would sit on his porch and inside himself cry 

Then 15 years later you found out that he died 

Then you went back home, and you crossed on his side 

Chorus: 

And oh darlin memory is a strange thing 

It's like a distant passed world that we'll never remember but we'll 

never forget 

And oh darlin memory is a strange thing 

No matter how much we want to erase, to it we'll always cling 

Do you remember your first love? 

I do?at the time I thought she was perfect but oh man how I was wrong 

If I could just know then, what I do know now 

I would turn in all my jersies and I would gracefully back out 

There are lots of little things that we don't forget and we don't know 

why but we don't regret all the little mischevious things that we've 

done because aside from them life'd be no fun 

Now as a little boy, everything made me happy 

It could just be as simple as playin in a ditch or one of mom's homemade 

sandwiches 

I could dress up as some superhero, or some legendary figure to take my 

mind off things at hand?but now I can't 

Chorus
