I'll Just Take These lyrics

(dwight yoakam)

I think that I will just take a memory
A small one that I know real well, then go

What I'll take is all the happy thoughts I can recall
But I know there won't be much that I can bear to touch
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/d/dwight_yoakam/ill_just_take_these.html ]
Chorus:
So I'll just take what my mind can stand
'cause there's not a lot that you can hold
In trembling hands

Just these last few hopeful things that we left lay
Then quickly leave before any more
Get in my way

Chorus:
So I'll just take what my mind can stand
'cause there's not a lot that you can hold
In trembling hands
