(Dave Loggins/John Bettis)



The phone rang... I said, "Hello."

He said, "Can we talk baby?"

And I said, "Darlin' Im closed for the night."

And he said, "Well, I saw a light."

Yeah, but there's nobody home

I think you're lookin' for someone or something

That's either missin' or gone



And I think it's time I hung a sign in the window

'Cause I'm tired, I'm so tired of my heart goin' broke

I'm goin' out of business

There's no need for you to come around

'Cause I'm closin' this memory down

I'm closin' this memory down



And then there was silence

You know...like there always is

When one doesn't understand

The other has nothin' left to give tonight

Let it be closin' time

I can't go on livin' like this

I think you're lookin' for someone or something

That's either missin' or I just can't help you with



And I think it's time I hung a sign in the window

'Cause I'm tired, I'm so tired of my heart goin' broke

I'm goin' out of business

There's no need for you to come around

'Cause I'm closin' this memory down

I'm closin' this memory down



You don't know how hard love worked

But just how badly love hurt to fail

The phone rang...I said, "Hello."

He said, "Can we talk baby?"

And I said, "Darlin' I'm closin' this memory down."

I'm closin' this memory down
