Traces

Traces of love long ago
that didnt work out right
Traces of love

Faded photograph
Covered now with lines and creases
Tickets torn in half,
memories in bits and pieces
Traces of love long ago
that didnt work out right
Traces of love

Things we used to share
Souvenirs of days together
The ring he used to wear
Pages from an old love letter
Traces of a love long ago
that didnt work out right
Traces of love with me tonight

I close my eyes and say a prayer
That in his heart
hell find a trace of love still there,
Somewhere

Traces of hope in the night
that hell come back and dry
These traces of tears from my eyes
