Souvenir

  • A picture postcard
    A folded stub
    A program of the play
    File away your photographs
    Of your holiday

    And your mementos
    Will turn to dust
    But that's the price you pay
    For every year's a souvenir
    That slowly fades away
    Every year's a souvenir
    That slowly fades away Writer/s: BILLY JOEL
