It's been years since I was down in Memphis
Where it felt like I was soaring high above the dirty streets
Where the music played and it was always playing
But it all came crashing down the day you left me
I can clear my head
But it only lasts a moment
I can't stand the thought of her in your arms
Or your fingers
Touching her face
There are some things
There are some things
There are some things
Time will not erase
All the pretty things you said are all the things I can't forget
It don't hurt me less because you didn't mean them
And I know you made plans with her and made a fool of me
But I long for you to hold me one more time
I can clear my head
But it only lasts a moment
I can't stand the thought of her in your arms
Or your fingers
Touching her face
There are some things
There are some things
There are some things
Time will not erase
And the only time I didn't feel alone
Was when I was with you
And it's so hard to let, to let that feeling down
It's been years since I was down in Memphis
And it feels like I will never be the girl I was before
And sometimes I feel amazing light is blocking out your memory
And I know this endless darkness has an end
There are some things
There are some things
There are some things
Time will not erase
