Sweet Memories
She puts his dinner on the table
When they’re thru he washes up the plates
After fifty odd years
Ya learn to give more than you take
She lies in bed reads her magazines
He falls asleep right in his chair
She calls him to bed
He falls up those stairs
How many days
Make up a life
Pulls down the shade
Gives a goodnight kiss to his wife
Baby can’t you see
You’re the better part of me
With our love
We made babies
And gave to me
Such sweet memories
She plants her autumn tulips
He mows his summer lawn
She dusts photos on the bureau
Wonders where the times has gone
Love ain’t like a Hollywood movie
Can’t be captured in a country song
It’s simple as saying sorry
in spite of who was wrong
They move in circles
Shared a bed of dreams
They take their walks in the woods
Another winter gives birth to spring
Baby can’t you see
You’re the better part of me
With our love
We made a family
And gave to me
Such sweet memories
Johnny Lewis
A song about a preacher with mixed emotions and conflicting priorities. Hypocrisy is a bitter pill to swallow. Written in a humors fashion but contains a good life lesson.
