The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Last night, quietly, she walked through my mind As I lay searching for sleep. Her soft hand reached out, she whispered my name As she brushed a tear from my cheek. And then those funny familiar forgotten feelings Started walkin' all over my mind. It's sad, so sad to watch love go bad, But a true love would not have gone wrong. I'm just thankful for the good times we've had For without them I could not go on, With all these funny familiar forgotten feelings Walkin' all over my mind. I must go on, be strong, Tho' a million teardrops may fall, Before these funny familiar forgotten feelings Stop walk' all over my mind
