There's an old tattered bear
I used to tease you
To happier times
There's a bottle of champaign
I know you still save
Is there room in your heart
Like the old tattered bear
Now I'm afraid that you'll
Toss them away after all
It's French 59
'Cause you couldn't part with
To throw them away
In the bedroom somewhere
There's an old satin gown
At the end of the hall
There's a bottle of champaign
You were savin' for your wedding day
For an old memory like me
There's an old box of letters
Is there room in your heart
You can't hardly sleep 'less it's near
And it never got used anyway
'Cause you can't hardly sleep 'less it's near
For an old memory like me
For an old memory like me
To happier times
It's French 59
But you might as well drink it
'Cause you're too sentimental
That hasn't kept time in years
In the bedroom somewhere
Is there room in your heart
But you might as well drink it
Been twice handed down
But is there room in your heart
Like the clock on the wall
But you married in haste
That hasn't kept time in years
Things that were no use at all
What a terrible waste
