Sweet Memories Lyrics - Hank Locklin

My world is like a river 

As dark as it is deep 

Night after night the past slips in 

And gathers all my sleep 

My days are just an endless string 

Of emptiness to me 

Filled only by fleeting moments 

Of her memory 

Sweet memories.... 

Sweet memories.... 

She slipped into the darkness 

Of my dreams last night 

Wandering from room to room 

She's turning on each light 

Her laughter spills like water 

From the river to the sea 

Lord I'm swept away from sandness 

Clinging to her memory 

Sweet memories.... 

Sweet memories....
