Verse:

Your eyes once told me a sto -ry,
I built my cas -tles on air.
Life soon was dimm'd of it's glo -ry,
I lov'd, but you ceased to care.

 

Chorus:

There's no -thing left for me, Of days that used to be,

I live in mem -o -ry A -mong My Sou -ven -irs.

Some let -ters tied wth blue, A pho -to -graph or two,

I see a rose from you A -mong My Sou -ven -irs.

A few more to -kens rest with -in my trea -sure chest,

And tho' they do their best To give me con -so -la -tion,

I count them all a -part, And as the Tear drops start,

I find a bro -ken heart A -mong My Sou -ven -irs.
