All my friends say that they're happy that I'm moving on First time that they've seen me smile since you up and gone But your memory won't let me go Pretty as a picture that you'd hang up on a wall But she just can't compare to you and it really ain't her fault I know that I should fall for her Believe me girl, I've tried But your memory won't let me She's all good, but you're the best I ever had Tell me how could she ever compete with that Ocean Boulevard still has my heart Close my eyes and there we are It still the only place that feels like home 'Cause your memory (your memory) won't let me (won't let me) go No your memory (no your memory) won't let me (won't let me) Sometimes when she's close to me I still smell your perfume And everytime I'm holding her, I'm really holding you And any man in his right mind would be all hers by now But your memory won't let me She's all good, but you're the best I ever had Tell me how could she ever compete with that Ocean Boulevard still has my heart Close my eyes and there we are It still the only place that feels like home 'Cause your memory (your memory) won't let me go Oh your memory (won't let me go) I know that I should fall for her Believe me girl I've tried But your memory won't let me She's all good, but you're the best I ever had Tell me how could she ever compete with that Ocean Boulevard still has my heart Close my eyes and there we are It still the only place that feels like home 'Cause your memory (your memory) won't let me (won't let me) go Oh your memory (your memory) won't let me (won't let me) go No your memory won't let me go Won't let me Oh your memory won't let me go
