A Memory Like I'm Gonna Be Lyrics
by Tanya Tucker
I can hear you smiling on the phone
Bet you thought that I'd be crying
Go on and tell yourself I've done you wrong
But we both know you'll be ly-ing
You don't have to have a reason
If your heart is set on leaving
But you'll remember on some rainy day
A little simple word or thought
Or a birthday card I bought
Just surrender cause you can't get away
You never can be free
From a memory like I'm gonna be
That greener grass you think you see
Is just a high heeled illusion
Better count the cost of being free
Is it worth all that you're lo-sing
It may be over but it's not ending
Cause there's one thing you're forgetting
You'll remember on some rainy day
Little things we used to do
Like that night in Baton Rouge
Just surrender cause you can't get away
You never can be free
From a memory like I'm gonna be
When it all comes back someday
Don't be surprised on some lonely night
When you close your eyes
Just surrender cause you can't get away
You never can be free
From a memory like I'm gonna be
