Fortunes In Memories
[Chorus]
I've got fortunes in memories of your walk your talk your smile
I've got treasures of heartaches and some old dreams out of style I've got bundles of broken vows collected through the years
I've got fortunes in memories and they all were bought with tears
[Verse 1]
All my life I've been in love with you and now you're gone
All I own is memories of you that linger on
In some ways you left me nothing but the losers share
In some ways I guess I am a sort of millionaire
[Chorus]
I've got fortunes in memories of your walk your talk your smile
I've got treasures of heartaches and some old dreams out of style I've got bundles of broken vows collected through the years
I've got fortunes in memories and they all were bought with tears
[Instrumental Break]
Ah Billy Bird now
[Verse 2]
Take the pretty little lies you told me one by one
Take the careless cruel things, the sweet things you have done
Count them all as lost and they are more than I can bare
Count them all as memories and I am a millionaire
[Chorus]
I've got fortunes in memories of your walk your talk your smile
I've got treasures of heartaches and some old dreams out of style I've got bundles of broken vows collected through the years
I've got fortunes in memories and they all were bought with tears
