BURNING MEMORIES WRITERS MEL TILLIS, WAYNE P. WALKER BURNING MEMORIES (Mel Tillis - Wayne P. Walker) Tonight I'm burning old love letters Photographs and memories of you Hoping somehow I'll feel better And when the smoke is gone I won't want you Burning mem'ries (teardrops fall while I am) burning mem'ries Burning all those memories of you that I can't lose My heart to you no longer matters And I can't live on memories Into the fire those dreams you've shattered And when the smoke is gone then I'll be free Burning mem'ries (teardrops fall while I am)... Burning all those memories of you that I can't lose Oh those burning mem'ries (teardrops fall while I am)... Burning mem'ries (teardrops fall while I am)...

Yeah, this one's for the mama that I never knew (Never knew) I took acid just to burn all of my memories of you I guess now I really wanna know the truth How'd you leave your only child at nine for another dude? Took that pain and punched my father in the stomach 'til he bled Hit the store and stole a 40 and took that shit to the head All the years that you ignore me left me sleepless in the bed I hope daddy got some kids because your only son is dead My revenge, got it in the end (In the end) I'm sure all them rituals need me again (Need me again) I spent twenty years waiting on the stairs Now I'm finished thinking anyone'll ever hear these prayers If I die before I wake, smoke me out of Heaven's gate Bring me back to life on Sunday, pour me up the Devil's drink Wake up, go to work on Monday, grind it out for seven straight You showed me that just because we're blood don't mean that we relate All my dark days came in the summer All my thoughts changed, now I'm a loner Everything stayed, you were the runner Watch the train go away through the tunnels Hold up, stack my money up just for a rainy day Playboy MGK and I will pull up where you stay (Yeah) I die for my brother, I don't have nothin' to say (No) I die won't my baby mama, told me I was fake (Damn) I got real shooters, they ain't worryin' 'bout a case (Woah) I got people talkin', but won't say shit to my face (Yeah) AST for life, my ops are rolling in they grave (Damn) See me doin' good, I put that work in like a slave (Work) Up all night, mine Cloudy don't be spooked If I show you love, then will you always tell the truth?

The child of burning time The child of burning time My only consolation is all lies The apex of my consequence is dying here tonight Winter hasn't ended, and it always looks like rain I can't remember anything, anything Inside the absolution, we succumb And appetites are bittersweet, I think I'm going numb A chance to give up avarice has marked my one regret The child of burning time is gone, and he hasn't come back yet Before I tell my story, please consider who I am I missed my window years ago, I'm doing all I can A tragedy is commonplace, but in the end, they go away My skin is still the only stain I'm left to wear in shame I cut my name into my heart I'll tear it all apart I beg you burn me away I won't become your hero just to fight the life I save Burn me away I won't give up tomorrow just to lose it all today I burn away, I burn away I burn away, I burn away My isolation is my course The effect it has on life itself is a cancer on its source I rue the moments spent between the fetish and the flame Until this war is over, I won't ever lose my rage I cut my name into my soul I guess I'll never know I beg you burn me away I won't become your hero just to fight the life I save Burn me away I won't give up tomorrow just to lose it all today Burn me away I won't become your hero just to fight the life I save Burn me away I won't give up tomorrow just to lose it all, lose it all today

Between the pages It's all black and white The shades of grey nowhere to find Difference of an opinion What's wrong and what's right Dance of the dead like an ancient rite Food for your thoughts Reap what you sow Bite it to the bone There's a lesson to be learned or you Will drown in the fire Time has come to draw to line Your time has come It's the end of the line Hide in the shadows Prey for the weak Flash of the blade cut too deep Behind the curtain waiting to strike Missed the last chance The end of the fight Food for your thoughts Reap what you sow Bite it to the bone There's a lesson to be learned or you Will drown in the fire Time has come to draw to line Your time has come It's the end of the line

Long ago, I had a special friend Someone I gave my heart and trusted till the end But then things went down, he really did me wrong And left me feeling so confused abandoned and alone But then you came alone like a breath of air Uplifting me, you showed me how much you care So here we are, together you and me Hey baby, let's share that beat of love (Share the beat of love, share that beat of love) Let's share that beat of love (Share the beat of love, share that beat of love) I wanna thank you for what you've done for me How you helped me to express the love I have inside of me I must confess, I held it deep inside Until you came along and showed me how to let my feelings fly So here I am so in love with you Together we can feel very special groove We've got the champagne, darlin' Tonight's the night Hey baby, let's share that beat of love (Share the beat of love, share that beat of love) Let's share that beat of love (Share the beat of love, share that beat of love) Let's share that beat of love (Share that beat of love, share that beat of love) Let's share that, let's share that beat of love (Share that beat of love, share that beat of love) Hey baby, let's share this beat of love Funny how life can turn you around One day you're lost, next day you're found I'm so glad that we happen to find each other The things that you do show me that you love me And you know I love you too So let's take this time to discover All the possibilities love has got for you and me I know the deal, this love's for real, yeah Let's share that beat of love (Share that beat of love, share that beat of love) (Share that beat of love, share that beat of love) This love's for real, 'cause I know the deal (Share that beat of love, share that beat of love) I know the deal, I wanna share that love (Share that beat of love, share that beat of love) I wanna share your love, let's share that beat of love (Share that beat of love, share that beat of love)
