Lyrics
When the only heart you hear
Is beating in your breast
And all that?s left
Is what you?ve left
Behind ?
And the money in your pocket
Is your measure of success?.
And you wanna lie down
But you?re just so tired
Of lyin?.
And the shadow on the wall ?
Well, it feels like company
And the bourbon in your glass
Is the only friend you see ?
Remember me, my darlin?
I was
Never untrue
Remember me as I
Remember you.
(Spoken: ?Oh, won?t you remember me, my darling?
On all those cold ? and lonely ?
Nights?
Remember me my darling, tho?
We use to fuss and fight
I bet you wish you had me
Than not had me
Anymore.?)
And I wish I could forget you
But that would take all time
And I hope you heart is achin?
Just like mine.
Oh, remember me, my darlin?
I was
Never untrue
Remember me as I
Remember you.
Remember me, my darlin?
I was
Never untrue
Remember me as I Remember you.
