I think I've lost it but then i t proves me w rong
Your m emory has a m ind of its o wn
I can't tell it what to d o
I can s moke and I can d rink until it's out of v iew
But I can't hold it off it's too s trong
And your memory has a m ind of its o wn
Y our memory does w hat it wants to d o
I t survives though I d on't want it t o
I do okay when I d on't think of y ou
But your m emory does w hat it wants to d o
If your m emory had ears they'd be b urnin'
If your m emory had eyes they'd be c ryin'
And if i t had a heart it would l eave me al one
But your m emory has a m ind of its o wn
I can't tell it what to d o
I can s moke and I can d rink until it's out of v iew
But I can't hold it off it's too s trong
And your memory has a m ind of its o wn
Y our memory has a m ind of its o wn
