(B.F. Wright)
George Jones & Patti Page
(George)
Precious mem'ries, unseen angel
Sent from somewhere to my soul
How they linger ever near me
And the sacred past unfolds
Precious father, lovin' mother
Fly across the lonely years
And old home scenes of my childhood
In fond memory appear
Precious mem'ries, how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold
(Patti)
As I travel on life pathway
Know not what the years may hold
As I ponder, all brought fonder
Precious memories flood my soul
Precious mem'ries, how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold
(George)
Precious mem'ries how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
(Both)
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold
(George spoken)
Oh, how those precious mem'ries flood my soul...
