Souvenirs

Here’s to the twilight here’s to the memories these are my souvenirs my mental pictures of everything Here’s to the late nights here’s to the firelight these are my souvenirs my souvenirs I close my eyes and go back in time I can see you’re smiling you’re so alive we were so young we had no fear we were so young we had no idea that life was just happening life was just happening Here’s to your bright eyes shining like fireflies these are my souvenirs the memory of a lifetime we were wide-eyed with everything everything around us we were enlightened by everything everything So I close my eyes and go back in time I can see you smiling you’re so alive I close my eyes and go back in time you were just a child then and so was I we were so young we had no fear we were so young we had no idea that nothing lasts forever nothing lasts forever nothing lasts nothing lasts you and me together were always now or never Can you hear me can you hear me I close my eyes and go back in time I can see you smiling you’re so alive I close my eyes and go back in time you were wide-eyed you were wide-eyed we were so young we had no fear we were so young we had just begun a song we knew but we never sang it burned like fire inside our lungs and life was just happening and nothing lasts nothing lasts forever and life was just happening and nothing lasts nothing lasts forever I wouldn’t trade it for anything my souvenirs
