A Good Memory Songtext
von Flatland Cavalry

You′re a flower drawn in sidewalk chalk
Beautiful but she won't stick around for long
We′ll be gone from here in a matter of hours
After the first summer rain washes all of you away
Every single trace
You're a late night drunk phone call
Telling me you love me after all
I still taste the red wine on your lips on the side of the phone
But somehow we lose connection again and you're gone
If I′d held on a little longer
And loved you a little stronger
Would you still be riding shotgun next to me
Showed up uninvited
To be right by your side now darling
We′d be more than a good memory
You're a Southern Living magazine


So elegant and pristine
Well you smell like a rich woman′s cologne
Soon someone's bound to pick you up and take you home
If I′d held on a little longer
And loved you a little stronger
Would you still be riding shotgun next to me
Showed up uninvited
To be right by your side now darling
We'd be more than a good memory
If I′d held on a little longer
And loved you a little stronger
Would you still be riding shotgun next to me
Showed up uninvited
To your hill country side apartment
We'd be more than a good memory
A good memory
