I can see you don't know what a memory can do
You're getting ready to go like goodbyes are to you
I can tell by the way you're not falling apart
You're listening to somebody new, not your heart
And when she's laying beside you like I used to do
Her lips will be my lips when she's kissing you
You'll be looking at her, but it's my face you'll see
The first word in memory is me
She'll never touch you, darling, the way that I did
It won't be her fault, that's just how it is
When she's loving you the way I loved you first
Baby, remember, I know how it hurts
That's when you're gonna find out what a memory can do
And that's when you're gonna wish she was me loving you
But I'm here to tell you, you'll never be free
The first word in memory is me
When she's loving you the way I loved you first
Baby, remember, I know how it hurts
That's when you're gonna find out what a memory can do
And that's when you're gonna wish she was me loving you
But I'm here to tell you, you'll never be free
The first word in memory is me
The first word in memory is me
