CHORUS: Memories and Tears, Memories and Tears,
Oh, how they torture me so.
Memories and Tears, Memories and Tears,
I'd give the world if they'd go.
1: When I staked the claim on your heart, dear,
I sealed it with one burning kiss.
I thought then that no one before me,
Had ever felt love such as this.
It seemed that this one earthly treasure
Was mine now to claim through the years.
But time brought a change to your heart, dear,
And left me with memories and tears.
REPEAT CHORUS
2: As always with one final treasure,
Another man wanted my claim.
I knew then I'd never forgive you,
He equal in wealth or in fame.
I guess now my searching is over
For one who will always be true.
I have no desire for refilling
This heart that's left vacant by you.
REPEAT CHORUS
Memories and Tears, Memories and Tears,
I'd give the world if they'd go.
