Matchbooks and letters, ribbons and rings
inside a box with the usual things
each has a purpose, memories to fill
when we were young , and time stood still

They all remind me
of a love that still blinds me
I never believed you would go
I blew off the dust on that picture of us
but the one thing that hurt me the most .......were all those

Hearts and roses, that I’d never find
Hearts and roses, burned in my mind
Hearts and roses, when we said goodbye

Papers and lockets, an old broken chain
a medal we won long ago in a game
inside the box, was our little world
it held all the treasures of a boy and a girl

They still remind me
of a love that still blinds me
I never believed you would go
and I blew off the dust on that picture of us
but the one thing that hurt me the most .......were all those

Hearts and roses, that I’d never find
Hearts and roses, burned in my mind
Hearts and roses, when we said goodbye

I put the lid on the box , put the memories away
Until I open it some other day

and they’ll still remind me
of a love that still blinds me
I never believed you would go
I blew off the dust on that picture of us
but one thing that hurt me the most .......were all those

Hearts and roses, that I’d never find
Hearts and roses, their burned in my mind
Hearts and roses, when we said goodbye
when we said goodbye
