(Rebecca Lynn Howard/Melba Montgomery/Jerry Salley)

Pretending that it's not over

Would be such a foolish thing to do

But I'm just a fool in love with you

When will this end,I need to know

If you're gonna leave why don't you go

So I can start leaving you behind,cause

You're not a memeory yet

Someone I can forget

You're still here in my heart

Not just an occasional thought in my head

Right now I'm holding on

To something I know is gone

Wish I could lay it to rest

But you're not a memory yet

Give me the satisfaction

Of watching you walking out the door

If you don't love me anymore

If you were a memeory time would fade

The past just a little more each day

'Til you hardly ever cross my mind (but)

You're not a memeory yet

Someone I can forget

You're still here in my heart

Not just an occasional thought in my head

Right now I'm holding on

To something I know is gone

Wish I could lay it to rest

But you're not a memory yet
