Lyrics Charley Pride

Charley Pride

Where Do I Put Her Memory

I've taken down all of her pictures

I've cleaned out all of her drawers

I've painted over the scratches

From all of our little wars

I've put away every gift

That she ever gave to me

Now everything is in its place

Except for her memory

And where do I put her memory

When it haunts me night and day

I can't hide it in the closet

And Lord, I can't throw it away

And where do I put her memory

When it's always in my mind

I can't chase it, erase it, I just have to face it

It's gonna be there a long, long time

I got rid of the pillow

Where she used to lay her head

I've picked up her hairpins and curlers

That she dropped on her side of the bed

I've locked away each souvenir

And thrown away the key

Now everything is in it's place

Except for her memory

And where do I put her memory

When it's always in my mind

I can't chase it, erase it, I just have to face it

It's gonna be there a long, long time

It's gonna be there a long, long time
