Lyrics I Want To Carry Your Sweet Memories - The Statler Brothers

I Want To Carry Your Sweet Memories

At last I’ve broken off the chain
Now just a few shoppin' marts from Maine
Now and then a little jolt of sorrow hit my mind
But after a while I soon forget the pain.
And go on with sweet memories of you
And find that I can live my life anew
And I erase each thought that I might want you back again
And I remember all you put me through.
I don’t wanna' be your servant anymore
I don’t wanna' be your slave
I just wanna' remember all the good times that we shared
And carry those sweet memories to my grave.
And now I’m free of most the pain
And I don’t wanna' hurt that way again
If I catch me longin' for the way things used to be
I just pick up a piece of broken chain.
That chain recalls alot for me
I’m reminded how things used to be
There’s just some things I’d rather not remember about you
I just wanna' have sweet memories.
I don’t wanna' be your servant anymore
I don’t wanna' be your slave
I just wanna' remember all the good times that we shared
And carry those sweet memories to my grave.
I don’t wanna' be your servant anymore
I don’t wanna' be your slave
I just wanna' remember all the good times that we shared
And carry those sweet memories to my grave…
