Souvenirs |
All the snow has turned to water |
Christmas days have come and gone |
Broken toys and faded colors |
Are all that’s left to linger on |
I hate graveyards and old pawn shops |
For they always bring me tears |
I can’t forgive the way they rob me |
Of my childhood souvenirs |
Memories they can’t be boughten |
They can’t be won at carnivals for free |
Well it took me years |
To get those souvenirs |
And I don’t know how they slipped away from me |
Broken hearts and dirty windows |
Make life difficult to see |
That’s why last night and this mornin' |
Always look the same to me |
I hate reading old love letters |
For they always bring me tears |
I can’t forgive the way they rob me |
Of my sweetheart’s souvenirs |
