When Times Were Good

There's a place I can go in my memories
Back to a life I chose to leave behind
And sometimes I still need to remember
When times were good and you were mine

I'm still livin' with my reasons for leaving
They must have seemed more important at the time
Now I only dream about the two of us
When times were good and you were mine

I still have everything that came between us
My old guitar and a weakness for the wine
So tonight I thought I'd write one for the memories
When times were good and you were mine

There's a Golden Eagle rollin' out of Memphis
And a country singer still lost between the lines
And I know that this old road I'm on will never lead me
Where times were good and you were mine

I still have everything that came between us
Like my old guitar and this weakness for the wine
And tonight I thought I'd write one for the memories
When times were good and, and you were mine

I still have everything that came between us
Like my old guitar and this hunger for the wine
And tonight I thought I'd write one for the memories
Where times were good and you were mine
Where times were good and you were mine
