Touching MemoriesPorter Wagoner

If I could reach and touch a memory
The way your memory's touching me

I wish I told you then what I feel now
With these memories locked inside
But I couldn't find the words in time
To save our love from dying

How could love so young grow old so fast
While the memories linger on
And all the things we said when love was warm
Sound so cold now that you're gone

If I could reach and touch a memory
Just the way one's touching me
I could still be holding love
Instead of memories

If I could reach and touch a memory
The way your memory's touching me
I could still be holding love
Instead of memories
