Here you go- (Written by Mickey Newbury) My world is like a river as dark as it is deep,
Night after night the past slips in and gathers all my sleep,
My days are just an endless stream of emptiness to me,
Filled only by the fleeting moments of her memory.

Sweet memories, sweet memories.

She slipped into the silence of my dreams again last night,
Wandering from room to room turning on each light,
Her laughter spills like water from the river to the sea,
And I'm swept away from sadness clinging to her memory.

The best version I have heard of this song was done by Don Edwards on the old Nashville Now show a few years back. He does mostly cowboy songs but he is a great singer and is one of the greatest ballad singers in my opinion.
