Lyrics:
VERSE 1 Clean the slate for another day We’ll make the old one steal away I’m so ready to make this change We must get back to higher ground If we could just stay in the now Oh, we’ve got to move on Press on for the upward call, babe Let’s not get torn down Or come back here again Leave it where it falls And if it keeps calling You say
CHORUS Memory, you’re a lying cheat Come down from the mountain Fall into pieces Waste time when you’re talking to me I’ve been to the cross And laid down the grief There’s no life in the history And sorrow is a wound That doesn’t want healing Next time that we happen to meet I won’t think twice Won’t think twice I won’t think twice
VERSE 2 How much more could you have to say? You make a scene and start to play Oh, you think I won’t release it all Give me the strength, Lord, to walk away To let it go and make it stay Oh, so we can move on Press on for the upward call, babe Watch, don’t get torn down We won’t come here again Leave it where it falls And if it keeps calling You say
CHORUS Memory, you’re a lying cheat Come down from the mountain Fall into pieces Waste time when you’re talking to me I’ve been to the cross Tasted the freedom No life in the history And sorrow is a wound That doesn’t want healing Next time that we happen to meet I won’t think twice I won’t think twice I won’t think twice
