Lyrics Ricky Van Shelton

Ricky Van Shelton

Sweet Memories

Sweet memories

Sweet memories

My world is like a river, as dark as it is deep

Night after night, the past slips in and gathers all my sleep

My days are just an endless stream of emptiness to me

Filled only by the fleeting moments of his memory

Sweet memories

Sweet, sweet memories

Oh yeah

He slipped into the silence of my dreams last night

Wondering from room to room, just turning on each light

His laughter spills like water from the river to the sea

I'm swept away from the sadness, clinging to his memory

Oh, sweet, sweet memories

Sweet memories

Oh yes
