In Your Memory
Love? Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Darkest night, candlelight
Your hands were soft
Your skin too pale
White on white
I had to turn away
From your light

I could see you
Laugh at me
You knew what
I was thinking inside
With one look
Of your all seeing eyes

(Your eyes)
Wear the disguise
(Your eyes)
(Your eyes)
I'm lost in your eyes

Your glance felt
Like a knife
So clear, so blue
I was swimming inside
I was swimming inside

You'll always be real to me
I took one look
I could fly away
Stare, stare
In your all seeing eyes
Till starlight

(Your eyes)
You wear the disguise
(Your eyes)
(Your eyes)
I'm lost in your eyes

(Your eyes)
You wear the disguise
(Your eyes)
(Your eyes)
I'm lost in your eyes

Amedio




Gli occhi tuoi
Mi anno fatto innamorare

Love Your Memory
Miranda Lambert
I don't want to see you or feel you
I don't want to look into your eyes
I don't want to touch you or miss you
I just want to love your memory tonight
I can't handle all this pain all we ever do is fight anyway
Why we even tried I haven't a clue
With hearts involved
There's way too much to lose
I don't want to see you or feel you
I don't want to look into your eyes
I don't want to touch you or miss you
I just want to love your memory tonight
You were something else to look at
Your intentions they weren't all bad
Tried to make me something I was'nt
Lord knows there ain't no future
In all that
I don't want to see you or feel you
I don't want to look into your eyes
I don't want to touch you or miss you
I just want to love your memory tonight
Songwriters: Miranda Lambert

There will never be another Blake and Miranda! They will neither one find what they shared with anyone else. Their lyrics speak the true feelings!

@altonrocker

I couldn't agree more Samantha. The combination of her accent and her voice control along with the lyrics she is singing melts my heat every time. I love Mianda's music.
