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 |
