Souvenirs

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

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

[Chorus]

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
