Took your clothes out of my closet
Wiped your number from my phone
I deleted your text messages
Hoping that you'd leave me alone.
I set fire to the letters
Words that I used to hold so dear
I thought that you were gone for good
I sat right down and grabbed a beer
That's when the thoughts came rushing back
Those things that I had put away
No matter how I try to hide it
I guess your memories here to stay
Because I can't burn the pictures in my mind
Scenes so bright and happy I just can't leave them behind
I lose myself each time I think about those better times
Because I can't burn the pictures in my mind
Thought that I would watch some TV
To get my mind away from you
But I couldn't stop from thinking
About the things you use to do
You'd lay your head upon my shoulder
And you'd close those pretty eyes
I would listen to you breathing
And contently you would sigh
I took a walk to clear my head
But everything along the way
Somehow reminded me of you
I guess your memories here to stay
Because I can't burn the pictures in my mind
Scenes so bright and happy I just can't leave them behind
I lose myself each time I think about those better times
Because I can't burn the pictures in my mind
