So every day I see you

in some other face

they crack a smile

talk a while

try to take your place

Mmm my memory

serves me far too well

I just sit here

on this mountain

thinking to myself

You're a fool boy

why don't you go down

find somebody

find somebody else

Mmm my memory

serves me far too well

It's not as though

we just broke up

It's not as though

it was yesterday

But something I just

can't explain

something in me

needs this pain

I know I'll never

see your face again

Come on now

I've got to be

strong now

Now everybody's talking

about this new decade

Like you say

the magic numbers

then just say goodbye

to the stupid mistakes

you made

Oh my memory

serves me far too well

Don't you know that

the years will

come and go

Some of us will

change our lives

Some of us

still have

nothing to show

Nothing baby

but memories

And if these wounds

they are self inflicted

I don't really know

how my poor heart

could have protected me

But if I have to

carry this pain

if you will not

share the blame

I deserve to see

your face again

Come on now

I've got to be

strong now

Come back

Come back

Come back

Come back

Oh come back

to me darling

I will make it

worth your while

Come back to your baby

I miss your kiss

I miss your smile

Seems to me the peace

I search to find

it ain't gonna be mine until

you say you will

Don't you keep me

waiting for that da....y

I know, I know, I know

you hear these words

that I.. say ooh yeah

I know, I know

I know, I know

You can't always get

what you want

You can't always get

what you want

You can't always get

what you want
