ODE TO JOHNNY (YOU CAN'T PUT YOUR ARMS AROUND A MEMORY) It doesn't pay to try all the smart boys know why It doesn't mean I didn't try I'll just never know why And even when i'm home Big deal im still alone You see how restless i am, I beat my head against a pole Just trying to knock some sense down in these bones And even though they don't show the scars are so old And even when they go they'll still let you 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, don't try, don't try You're just a messed up kid, and you got no need Because you're living with him, we're one in the same And even though they never show, the scars they are so And when they go, they're gonna let you 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, don't try, don't try
