From the recording You Matter
Lyrics
Threw a 50 down
At the corner of the bar
Won’t get me where I’m going
But it’ll be a start
Bartender asks me
Son what will you have
I said friend if you don’t mind
I’ll try your biggest glass
CH:
Pour me a memory
Make it 2013. Fill it up
‘til I forget she’s not in love with me
And keep ‘em coming strong
I’ll be here all night long
I wanna taste the way it was
Before it all went wrong
What I really need is the way it used to be
Pour me a memory
Things I could’ve done
And what I should have saids
Like a record they play on and on
Inside my head
I need to find a way
To help this heart rewind
I don’t care even if it takes you all night
CH2:
To pour me a memory
Make it straight & sweet
Take me back to that old sawdust floor
And her first dance with me
Let George sing “The Chair”
I’ll run my fingers through her hair
While everything around us all but disappears
Tonight I wanna be more than her use to be
Pour me a memory
BR:
Sometimes I wonder
If shes’s somewhere out there
Wondering when and how
we could’ve let love slip away
But I know that’s wishful thinking
..As I’m drinking out loud
That’s why I’m here with no reason not to stay
So…
CH3:
Pour Me a Memory
Keep ‘em coming strong
I’ll be here all night long
I wanna taste the way it was
Before it all went wrong…
What I really need
Is the way it used to be
I deserve to be…
more than her use to be
Pour Me a Memory
