Every line on my face is from tryin' to erase her memory
Even though she's gone, she's lingering on in my memory

With her strength to guide me, the world was my own
And now my spirit is broken, my dreams have turned to stone
And just when my day begins goin' all right
I wake callin' her name, alone in the night

'Cause every line on my face is from tryin' to erase her memory
Even though she's gone, she's lingering on in my memory
'Cause every line on my face is from tryin' to erase her memory
Even though she's gone, she's lingering on in my memory

Her image inside me brings back all the years
That she needed and held me and shared all my fears

Echoes of laughter remain in the air
I stare into the fire pretending she's there

'Cause every line on my face is from tryin' to erase her memory
Even though she's gone, she's lingering on in my memory
'Cause every line on my face is from tryin' to erase her memory
Even though she's gone, she's lingering on in my memory

They say the pain lessens as time passes by
I swear to myself I'm not gonna cry
But the tears keep on comin', I'm runnin' and runnin'
The tears keep on comin' and I'm runnin' and runnin'
From her memory

'Cause every line on my face is from tryin' to erase her memory
Even though she's gone, she's lingering on in my memory
Every line on my face is from tryin' to erase her memory
Even though she's gone, she's lingering on in my memory

Ah, in my memory
Ah, in my memory
Ah, in my memory
Ah, in my memory
