My Scrapbook Songtext

von Jeannie C. Riley

While looking through an old scrapbook of mine
I let the pages take me back through time
Just an old scrapbook yellowed with age
But a million old mem'ries still live on each page.

Memories that never will die
From our first hello to our last goodbye
Old souvenirs and pictures we took
I'll keep them forever inside my scrapbook.

I see two tickets to the high school play
The note on the napkin he wrote me one day
That said things he thought were too silly to say
His change of address when he moved away.

Memories that never will die
From our first hello to our last goodbye
Old souvenirs and pictures we took
I'll keep them forever inside my scrapbook.

--- Instrumental ---

I look at the last page and can't help but cry
The newspaper clippings tell how he died
We planned to be married that night secretely
But fate stopped my love on his way to meet me.

Memories that never will die
From our first hello to our last goodbye
Old souvenirs and pictures we took
I'll keep them forever inside my scrapbook...
