Paragraph Lyric
(Mickey Newbury)

You know I don't think much about her anymore
Seldom if ever does she cross my mind
Yesterday's gone love it's better forgotten
Like the poison red berries to die on the vine.

This morning at dawn Lord I pulled into town
Had some coffee and talked with some old friends of mine
Laughing at all the good times they remember
And then I remembered the time.

Oh Lord, I can still see the bright lights back in Dallas
As yesterday moves like a dream through my mind
I didn't suppose that I'd ever forget her
And you know it took such a long time.

But you know I don't think much about her no more
And seldom if ever does she ever cross my mind
Yesterday's gone and it's better forgotten
It's like a poison red berry that clings to the mind...
(Mickey Newbury)      You know I don't think much about her anymore   Seldom if ever does she cross my mind   Yesterday's gone love it's better forgotten   Like the poison red berries to die on the vine.      This morning at dawn Lord I pulled into town   Had some coffee and talked with some old friends of mine   Laughing at all the good times they remember   And then I remembered the time.      Oh Lord, I can still see the bright lights back in Dallas   As yesterday moves like a dream through my mind   I didn't suppose that I'd ever forget her   And you know it took such a long time.      But you know I don't think much about her no more   And seldom if ever does she ever cross my mind   Yesterday's gone and it's better forgotten   It's like a poison red berry that clings to the mind...
