lyrics

RAP:
So, I typed a text, but I didn't send it
Imma need a minute (Gimme a minute)
You used to hold me in your arms and tell me I was yours forevermore,
But I don't think you meant it.
You used to lay up in it
All night look in my eyes then watch the sunrise
Sugar, look, I can't lie
It's just that I get surprised
That every time I turn around I catch a glimpse of your eyes

Long gone, you're just a memory,
you ain't no friend to me
But sometimes I wonder
When I sit up under the sky
Did you ever cry like me?
I enter a room it reminds me of you
A hint of perfume just reminds me of all of the sweet times that I spent with you
But then I'm reminded that what we had is through

VERSE 1:
I saw you walk in and baby you caught my eyes
I felt you press close to be right by my side
I heard you whisper "come stay for the night"

But now, you're gone
and I am all alone

A distant memory of you in my life
A recollection of being your wife
You promised me you would stay right by my side

But now, you're gone
and I am all alone

CHORUS:
You're just a memory of something that will never be
You're just a memory of something that used to be

When I think of you I get nostalgia
I know that I will never have you

VERSE 2:
I've been yearning for a love that is no longer mine
Reflections of the good times have been running around in my mind
Our love plays back like an endless rhyme
But I know that, baby, you are no longer mine

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
A hint of your fragrance lingers in the air
The scent of a lover, essence of our affair
The thought of you plays like a tune on the strings of my heart

RAP:
When you cross my mind I get nostalgia
I know I'll never have ya
But in the midst of everything I do
I think about ya
without you, it's been so hard to fall asleep with you
No doubt, you're on my mind
I think of all the times you would wine me and dine me and hold me close
Tell me that I am the girl that you love the most
But as I snap into reality the gravity chokes
Reminding me the love I see is a ghost

VAMP:
You are just like a memory
Of something that will never be
We'll never be

OUTRO
You're just a memory
But it's over

It's over
But you're haunting my memory
