Slow Dancing With A Memory

He walked into
Dustys Place last night
I said something about that boy aint right
He drank a half a dozen double shots
Walked to the dancefloor and picked his spot [CHORUS]
Then he closed his eyes and dropped his head
Folded his arms across his chest
Slowly started swaying side to side
Thats when
I walked up and said are you okay
He had big old tears running down his face
He said not right now buddy cant you see
Im slow dancing with a memory
I just waited until the song was through
I asked if there was something
I could do
He said not unless you can bring her home
Then he stopped loving her today came on [CHORUS]
Then he closed his eyes and dropped his head
Folded his arms across his chest
Slowly started swaying side to side
I walked back to the bar and old dusty said
We oughta throw that fool out on his head
I said why dont you let that poor man be
Hes slow dancing with a memory
I hate to see somebody down that low
But thats the wau life is and the way love goes
Someday that just mights be you or me
Slow dancing with a memory
Slow dancing with a memory
