Little Old You

Copyright 2010 Robert J. Thompson, BMI

THE DAY YOU LEFT AND SAID GOODBYE
YOUR MEMORY WALKED RIGHT IN
DIDN’T LIKE THE OTHER GUY
I’VE TRIED EVERYTHING, I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO
JUST CAN’T SHAKE THIS MEMORY OF LITTLE OLD YOU

ON A BUS OR ON A PLANE
YOUR MEMORY FOLLOWS ME
AROUND AND CALLS MY NAME
I CHANGED MY LOCK, I CHANGED MY NUMBER TOO
JUST CAN’T SHAKE THIS MEMORY OF LITTLE OLD YOU

LITTLE OLD YOU
YOU MAKE ME CRY
I LIE AWAKE EACH NIGHT
ALONE AND WONDER WHY
IF YOU TRIED HALF AS MUCH
AS YOUR MEMORIES ALWAYS DO
THEN I WOULDN’T BE SITTIN’ HERE MISSIN’
LITTLE OLD YOU

INSTRUMENTAL BREAK

I’VE TRIED PILLS AND ALCOHOL
YOUR MEMORY COMES RIGHT BACK
AFTER I’VE SLEPT IT OFF
I HATE YOUR LOVER, I HATE YOUR MEMORY TOO
JUST CAN’T SHAKE THIS MEMORY OF LITTLE OLD YOU

LITTLE OLD YOU
YOU MAKE ME CRY
I LIE AWAKE EACH NIGHT
ALONE AND WONDER WHY
IF YOU TRIED HALF AS MUCH
AS YOUR MEMORIES ALWAYS DO
I WOULDN’T BE SITTIN’ HERE MISSIN’
LITTLE OLD YOU
THEN I WOULDN’T BE SITTIN’ HERE MISSIN’
LITTLE OLD YOU
YEAH I WOULDN’T BE SITTIN’ HERE MISSIN’
LITTLE OLD YOU
