The Real Thing (More Than a Memory)

It's gonna take a lot more than a memory
For I had the real thing too long

I keep telling myself I'll be all right
With the memory that you left behind
But it will take a lot more than a memory
To keep me from losin' my mind

My memories won't last as a shield from the past
They break down and cry out when we're alone
I need a lot more than a memory
For I had the real thing too long

For a while I can pull myself together
With a memory and a drink for my heart
But it will take a lot more than a memory
To keep me from falling apart
