i love you more in memory

Singer:charley pride

just outside my window there's a sound that i can't stand

the cold night rain is falling and the crying lonesome wind

it's telling me you're gone and he's with you now tonight

but i still love you more in memory than he can holding you tight

there were times when you were happy but just for a while

then a hunger for his love came and took away your smile

while you're in his arms you'll be in my dreams tonight

but i still love you more in memory than he can holding you tight

you know i loved you and i know how hard you'd try

but there's a part of you i never could satisfy

so i'm losing your sweet love oh just a little more each night

but i still love you more in memory than he can holding you tight

but i still love you more in memory than he can holding you tight
