Memories (I Don't Have)

Sometimes I think about why you left

Was it my fault, was it easy?

Sometimes I block it out, better yet

I disconnect from all feelings

All my life I thought that

Actions speak louder than words

But I started thinking how

Different I'd be if I heard you tell me

Don't deal in lies, don't play with truth

Staying fine when the odds are stacked against you

Oh, your advice of falling in love

I hear you telling me

"Whatever happens, oh, I have your back"

But they're memories I don't have

I told myself you took nothing away

But then all of your shame became weight on my shoulders

Convincing myself it would all be okay

Like having faith I'd win a war without soldiers

All my life I thought that

Actions speak louder than words

But I started thinking how

Different I'd be if I heard you tell me

Don't deal in lies, don't play with truth

Staying fine even when the world's against you

Oh, your advice of falling in love

Oh, I'd hear you telling me

"Whatever happens, oh, I've got your back"

But they're memories I don't have (Oh)

But they're memories I don't have (Oh)
