[Verse 1]
I was doing fine until I saw her yesterday
I glanced up as she went walking by
I had to turn my head and look the other way
For an old memory got in my eye

[Verse 2]
Time was slowly healing all the hurt that she caused me
I could hear her name and still not cry
But yesterday the heartaches all started once again
When an old memory got in my eye

[Chorus]
An old memory just stepped on me
And walked on by like she had never known me
At first I thought I couldn't stop my loving her
But I convinced myself I'd have to try
I think I might have made it in another day or so
But an old memory got in my eye
Yes an old memory got in my eye
