Attic Toys |
Rocking chairs and rocking horses |
Teddy bears and flying saucers |
Brik-a-brak and broken souvenirs |
Christmas lights and covered wagons |
Paper kites and Chinese dragons |
Mingle in the shadows of the years |
Attic toys in great profusion |
Lying here in strange confusion |
Cut into the memory like a knife |
Smiling dolls and faded cotton |
Dusty world I had forgotten |
Tell again the story of my life |
Smiling dolls and faded cotton |
Dusty world I had forgotten |
Tells again the story of my life |
Gone the time and dead the season |
Now I ask the rhyme and reason |
Why my little world got left behind |
Here among this helter skelter |
Taking stock and taking shelter |
I may find a moments peace of mind |
Attic toys in great profusion |
Vanished hopes and disillusions |
Peel away the memories like a knife |
Broken dreams and paradoxes |
Side by side in cardboard boxes |
Recollect the story of my life |
Broken dreams and paradoxes |
Jungle up in cardboard boxes |
Tell again the story of my life |
Attic toys of pain and pleasure |
Lying here like buried treasure |
Measure up the story of my life |
