Before You Turn to a Memory by Joni Compretta Lyrics

I saw you staring out the window today
As the trees turned white from the snow
Yeah, I recognize the signs
He's (she's) back on your mind
That tear tells me all I need to know
Now

Before you turn to a memory turn to me
Let me prove my love is all you really need
And before you run to familiar ground
Give us a chance to turn it around
Before you turn to a memory
Turn to me

As you slowly wiped the tear from your eye
I could read every thought that crossed your mind
They were leading you down a road
And I know where it goes
It ends with your memory left behind
So
Before you turn to a memory turn to me
Let me prove my love is all you really need
And before you run to familiar ground
Give us a chance to turn it around
Before you turn to a memory
Turn to me

And before you take that final step
And become a memory I can't forge
Now

Before you turn to a memory turn to me
Let me prove my love is all you really need
And before you run to familiar ground
Give us a chance to turn it around
Before you turn to a memory
Turn to me
