SAD, SAD MEMORIES

SAD, SAD MEMORIES
At the end of a dry husked corn field
Just outside our little town,

Underneath a gray quartz rock,
Sad, sad memories can be found.

For that is where I buried
Keepsakes of my one true love.

Special memories that I’d carried
But no longer dare think of.

Sad, sad memories, how they linger
In the corners of my mind,

Sad, sad memories, with a stinger
Of the lyin,’ cheatin’ kind,

Sad, sad memories, how they linger
With bile, my heart, they fill,

Sad, sad memories of a lyin’ lover,
A lover who’s cheatin’ still.
