Sometimes An Old Memory Gets In My Eye Lyrics - Dolly Parton

Like someone drowning I reach for a straw 

Grasping for love where there's no love at all 

Slowly I'm sinking as time drags by and sometimes an old memory gets in my eye 

I struggle for strenght to face the dawn 

And I'm freezing to death without you to keep me warm 

I hold an arm full of nothing close to my side 

And sometimes an old memory gets in my eye 

Sometimes an old memory gets in my eye 

And when it's ours it's hard to keep my eyes dry 

Don't think you see tears for I never cry 

But sometimes an old memory gets in my eye 

Yes sometimes an old memory gets in my eye
