Photographs and memories, Christmas cards you sent to me;
All that I have are these to remember you.
Memories that come at night take me to another time;
Back to a happier day, when I called you mine.
But we sure had a good time when we started way back when,
Morning walks and bedroom talks, oh, how I loved you then.
Summer skies and lullabies, nights we couldn’t say goodbye;
And of all of the things that we knew not a dream survived.
Photographs and memories, all the love you gave to me;
Somehow it just can’t be true that’s all I’ve left of you.
But we sure had a good time when we started way back when,
Morning walks and bedroom talks, oh, how I loved you then.
