Up In The Attic |
| Tied up in a bundle is a stack of love letters |
| From a boy that meant trouble when I didn’t know better |
| A green cat’s eye marble I won in fifth grade |
| A schoolyard trophy from the toughest guy I played |
| I had an old dog that was loyal and sure |
| She’s in heaven now and these tags are hers |
| A picture my daughter drew when she was just four |
| Of the angel that kissed her the hour she was born |
| Up in the attic, up in the attic |
| Is a treasure of paper, glass and fabric? |
| I forget that’s it’s there but I’m glad I still have it |
| There is an old box I keep safe in the attic |
| A collection of glass horses, a stack of 45s |
| A ring my mom gave me when she was still alive |
| A diary of secrets I had to confess |
| A car key, a house key, my first wedding dress |
| Up in the attic, up in the attic |
| Is a treasure of paper, glass and fabric |
| I forget that’s it’s there but I’m glad I still have it |
| There is an old box I keep safe in the attic |
| Now I know it’s just the memories that finally last |
| I know the use for these things long ago passed |
| But it’s just one small box I can’t seem to lose |
| Through so many changes and so many moves |
| Up in the attic, up in the attic |
| Is a treasure of paper, glass and fabric |
| I forget that’s it’s there but I’m glad I still have it |
| There is an old box I keep safe in the attic |
