With a diary of two lovers
My memory had mercy on me and let me go on
Have gracefully moved along
Now it's a dusty old box
I tripped and almost hurt myself
A New Year's Eve hat from '94
The passion captured both of us
The where's and the whens
That's the night we first made love
Ticket stubs to Billy Joel
The where's and the whens
And pictures from the Sugar Bowl
It's funny how time reduces a keepsake
A cardboard treasure chest
That meant so much then
Considering everything you meant
Here's us dancing on your birthday
Had fallen off the basement shelf
My memory had mercy on me and let me go on
My memory had mercy on me and let me go on
July 29th or 28th
Have gracefully moved along
Considering everything you meant
The song was 'Always and Forever'
Scattered there across the floor
Considering everything you meant
I thought I never would forget
Some of these souvenirs I remember
That meant so much then
No different from the others
To a footnote
It held us then it set us free
I'm not sure but I remember
Mostly I don't
I thought I never would forget
This is all that's left of you and me
