Mel Tillis Lingering Memories Lyrics:
If mem'ries were gathered like flowers each day I
would pick a bouquet To last through these long
lonely hours but mem'ries aren't gathered that way
For mem'ries don't grow like the roses when kissed
by the sunshine and dew And mem'ries aren't
carefully chosen they've bloomed from the love

that once grew There's mem'ries as sweet as the
roses and sad as the violets of blue But the
lingering lingering mem'ries are the mem'ries that
I have of you [fiddle - steel]
That mem'ries would wither like flowers fall to
the earth and decay Each day I would pray for the
showers to wash all my mem'ries away There's
mem'ries as sweet... But the lingering lingering
mem'ries are the mem'ries that I have of you
Lyrics: Lingering Memories, Mel Tillis [end]
