Make Love to a Memory

Woke up the other day, crying out your name
And now here you are, and I’m feeling just the same
As I did so many years ago, and every night since then
You were just a memory, now you’re touching me again

And it still feels right, even though I know it’s wrong
And it still feels so good, like it has felt all along

But I don’t want make love
to a memory anymore
I don’t want to hold on
To a ghost of what came before
I don’t want to hurt that way
When you walked out the door
I don’t want to make love
To your memory anymore

Let’s make a new memory
A new dream for me tonight
Please don’t pull away
From a love that feels right
I don’t want to be alone
As I’ve been since you walked out the door
And I don’t want to make love
To your memory anymore.


Where did it all go bad, that all I have is a memory
Why did we fall apart, when it had been you and me
Should I have let you go, should you have let me run
Where did it go wrong, when love had just begun

Can we rebuild our love, can we pick up the pieces
Can we try again, can we make more memories

Cuz I don’t want make love
to a memory anymore
I don’t want to hold on
To a ghost of what came before
I don’t want to hurt that way
When you walked out the door
I don’t want to make love
To your memory anymore

Let’s make a new memory
A new dream for me tonight
Please don’t pull away
From a love that feels right
I don’t want to be alone
As I’ve been since you walked out the door
And I don’t want to make love
To your memory anymore.
