Words by Heart
The Country Dance Kings
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I was goin' through the closet Back in my old home Found my letterman's jacket, so I slipped it on Deep in the pocket, still folded up tight Was the letter you wrote to tell me goodbye The minute I saw it I just had to smile It smelled like old leather, as smooth as a child I took a deep breath, then put it away There was no need to read, I knew just what it would say [Chorus] I know the words by heart, I know every line From "this ain't easy" to "you'll get along just fine" I know every comma, every question mark No, I don't have to look, I know the words by heart Scenes like home movies flash through my head The homecoming game, that night on my bed The words that you wrote still cut me in two How you said you still cared but that we were through [Chorus] Ain't it funny how a memory Can play tricks on your mind I don't remember a thing from my classes But I can quote you every line I took off my jacket and put it away With your note in the pocket Like I found it that day Poured me a beer, then pictured your face And drank a silent toast to things that time can't erase [Chorus:Repeat x2]
