F
C
That drifts through your mind from time to time
G7
I could never be more than a knock on your door
F

C
For you know I’m not free and I never can be
F

And you’re bound to get restless in time
G7
All I can be is a sweet memory
F

That drifts through your mind

Tonight I’ll shed a silent tear while lying here with you
G7

The sands of time have trickled down to just a precious few
F
You’re young and so beautiful and I’m so glad I’m here

A ring for your finger so fine

So tonight we´ll just borrow each other tomorrow

Till we find we’ve run out of time
G7
All I can be is a sweet memory

For you know I’m not free and I never can be
F

And you’re bound to get restless in time

All I can be is a sweet memory

That drifts through your mind
