11. I found a box of memories, read a letter.
Dropped a tear where you signed your name,
Smearing the ink in the „love always.‟
Girl, I always start this way,
And then I end up in a bottle screaming out your name,
Punching the walls, carrying on like I‟ve gone insane.
And in the mirror, I can see the man who just shook his head, for no more.
Watching an angel cry her tears, stepping over my beers, as you walked out the
door.
And there ain‟t nothing like a memory, when it‟s coming on strong like a hurricane
How can love like that just up and walk away? It‟s killing me baby,
It‟s got me pourin‟ up another drink, bourbons hitting me hard like a freight train
With my back against the wall, or on my knees
When the worst of your memory, gets the best of me.
Well, I remember it all too well, riding 441 down to Milledgeville,
Crossing the bridge, as the sun set on Lake Sinclair.
I couldn‟t wait to see you smile,
But all I saw were tears in your pretty eyes, and that said it all, It was all downhill
from there.
And I remember you saying, “baby please don‟t give up on me.”
Oh baby, this stubborn man is gonna lie in the bed he made.

12. „Cause there ain‟t nothing like a memory, when it‟s coming off strong like a
hurricane.
How can love like that just up and walk away? It‟s killing me baby,
With my back against the wall, or on my knees
When the worst of your memory, gets the best of me.
It‟s got me pourin‟ up another drink, bourbons hitting me hard like a freight train
With my back against the wall, or on my knees
When the worst of your memory, gets the best of me.
Baby there ain‟t nothing like a memory, when it‟s coming off strong like a hurricane.
How can love like that just up and walk away? Your killing me baby.
Got me pouring up another drink, Bourbons hitting me hard like a freight train.
With my back against the wall, or on my knees,
When the words of your memory gets the best of me, the best of me.

13.  This song is about a guy who loved a girl,
a lot. They split up, and he‟s heartbroken
and remembers memories from her. The
memories won‟t go away, so there
getting the best of him.
