I thought I had driven you out of my mind When I crossed that bridge on memory lane And burned it one last time I told myself it's over and I'm finally free But just when I thought I had buried your memory It shows up just like a bad penny An old memory found it's way back home again Old feelings that I thought I'd lost Have found their way back in Like an old dog that you drop off Just out side of town Uninvited coming back anyhow An old memory found it's way back home again I swept every room when I cleaned house Tore up your old love letters And threw all of your pictures out But I can't throw away what I can't see I guess I fooled myself into believing Forgetting you was gonna be easy An old memory found it's way back home again Old feelings that I thought I'd lost Have found their way back in Like an old dog that you drop off Just out side of town Uninvited coming back anyhow An old memory found it's way back home again Why can't I keep your memory away? It's like a fire I can't put out A cold that I can't shake An old memory found it's way back home again Old feelings that I thought I'd lost Have found their way back in Like an old dog that you drop off Just out side of town Uninvited coming back anyhow An old memory found it's way back home again Yeah, an old memory found it's way back home again
