Salty Memories
(Julie Marie Duke)
I can still taste your tears
They ran down your face
Licked them off of my, fingertips
In that long ago place.
You told me it was, the first time
You had ever cried
I promised it would be, the last time
I lied.
Do you still curse my name?
Do you blame me?
Because these salty memories
Are all that sustain me.
I used to like to watch the snow
As it fell from the sky
But now it just reminds me
Of tears from your eyes.
They tell me I should go away
To where the sun always shines
I don’t want to find a way
To get you off my mind.
Do you still curse my name?
Do you blame me?
Because these salty memories
Are all that sustain me.
I see you from time to time
Greet you like a long lost friend
And as you just walk on by
I know I’d do it all again
Cause nothing tastes so sweet
And nothing cuts so deep
And these are the things we keep.
Do you still curse my name?
Do you blame me?
Because these salty memories
Are all that sustain me.
