Among My Souveniers
5 5 6 6 -5 -5
There's nothing left for me
-5 -5 -6 -6 6 6
of days that used to be.
6 6 7 7-7-7 -6-6 -7 -6 6 5
I live in memory among my souvenirs.
5 5 6 6 -5 -5 -5 -5-6 -6 6 6
Some letters tied with blue--a photograph or two.
6 6 7 7 -7 -7 -6 -6 -7 -6 6 7
I see a rose from you among my souvenirs.
5 -5 6 -6 -8 -8 7 -7 -6 7 6 7
A few more tokens rest within my treasure chest-
4 -4 5 -5 -7 -7 -6 6 -5 5 5 5 -4
And though they do their best to give me consolation,
5 5 6 6 -5 -5 -5 -5 -6 -6 6 6
I count them all a part and as the teardrops start,
6 6 7 7 -7 -7 -6 -6 -7 -6 6 7
I find a broken heart among my souvenirs.
--repeat from "A few more tokens...."
(One of my favorite Joni James tunes.)
