Memories Of You Lyrics - Bette Midler Sings The Rosemary Clooney Songbook - Bette Midler

Why can't I forget like I should? 

Heaven knows I would if I could. 

But I just can't keep you off my mind. 

Though you're gone, I have to explain, 

All around me you still remain. 

Wonder why fate should be so unkind? 

Waking skies at sunrise, 

Every sunset, too, 

Seems to be bringing me 

Memories of you. 

Here and there, everywhere, 

Scenes that we once knew. 

And they all just recall 

Memories of you. 

How I wish I could forget 

Those happy yesteryears 

That have left 

A rosary of tears. 

Your face beams in my dreams 

Spite of all I do. 

Everything seems to bring 

Memories of you. 

Those memories of you.
