All I Can Be

Harlan howard



All i can be is a sweet memory

That drifts through your mind time from time

I can never be more than a knock on your door

Just a shadow that's gone with the sunshine

For you know i'm not free

And i never can be

And your bound to get restless in time

All i can be is a sweet memory

That drifts through your mind



Tonight i'll share the silence

While lying here with you

Sands of time have trickled down

Just a precious few

You're young and so beautiful

And i'm glad that i'm here

But the ending is painfully clear



All i can be is a sweet memory

Of someone you had to leave behind

Who loves you and needs you

Never could give you

A ring for your finger so fine

So tonight we'll just borrow each other

Tomorrow we'll find we've run out of time

All i can be is a sweet memory

That drifts through your mind



For you know i'm not free

And i never can be

And your bound to get restless in time

All i can be is a sweet memory

That drifts through your mind



All i can be is a sweet memory

That drifts through your mind
