Just a few old memories Slipped in through my door Though I thought I had closed it So tightly before I can't understand it Why it should bother my mind For it all belongs to another place and time
Just a few old keep-sakes Way back on the shelf No, they don't mean nothin' Well I'm surprised they're still left Just a few old love letters With the edges all brown And an old faded picture I keep turned upside-down
Just a few old memories Going way back in time Well I can hardly remember I don't know why I'm cryin' I can't understand it Well I'm surprised myself First thing tomorrow morning I'll clean off that shelf
Just a few old keep-sakes Way back on the shelf No, they don't mean nothin' Well I'm surprised that they're left Just a few old love letters With their edges all brown And an old faded picture I keep turned upside-down.
