Steve Zuwala - Shoe Box lyrics

rate me

In my closet on a shelf there's an old shoebox

filled with old memories and not much else

There's photographs and letters

a few remember whens

That I find myself reading over and over again

And though you're not with me

I can relive history

In every letter - every I love you is circled in red

I've got the ticket stubs from every movie that we've seen

and the rose that you gave me

The one you picked from your momma's flower bed

The day we met

I really should have moved on

A long time ago

But when it comes to you

I never was that strong

No matter how far away you are or where I am

Inside this here old shoe box we'll be lovers and friends

And though you're not with me

I can relive history

I've got every card with your name signed in hearts

But the memory that I forget the most

Is the dear John letter that I keep closed

And baby I can't help but wonder where you are

I know you're with someone else not me

But I can still relive history

In every letter - every I love you is circled in red

I've got the ticket stubs from every movie that we've seen

The one you picked from your momma's flower bed

The day we met

In a closet on a shelf I'll keep that old shoe box

Filled with our memories - nothing else

No matter how far away you are or where I am

Or where I am

Inside this old shoe box we'll be

Lovers and friends
