You Can't Put Your Arms Around A Memory

It don’t pay to try
All the wiseguys know
It doesn’t mean you have to try
Even if you never ever know
Sometimes feeling so cold and alone
Walking the streets when you could be home
I don’t mean to be hard to you when I say
I can’t believe you’re still around today
Feeling so restless down here
Just like beating your head against the wall
Go, try to knock some sense into your head
Just be careful where you fall
Just a bastard kid
You made yourself a name
'Cause you were living on the run
You and me feel somewhat the same
You can’t put your arms around a memory
You can’t put your arms around a memory
You can’t put your arms around a memory
Don’t try
Don’t try
Now, all the scars, they still show
Even though they’re so, so old
They’ll always be here to let you know
It don’t pay to try
All the wiseguys know
It doesn’t mean you have to try
Even if you never ever ever know
You can’t put your arms around a memory
You can’t put your arms around a memory
You can’t put your arms around a memory
Don’t try
You can’t put your arms around a memory
You can’t put your arms around a memory
You can’t put your arms around a memory
Don’t try
You can’t put your arms around a memory
You can’t put your arms around a memory
You can’t put your arms around a memory
You can’t put your arms around a memory
You can’t put your arms around a memory
