I went back in time today a box i thought
I'd thrown away
Had fallen off the basement shelf,
I tripped and almost hurt myself
Scattered there across the floor
A new year's eve hat from '94
Ticket stubs to billy joel and pictures
From the sugar bowl
Some of these souvenirs i remember
Mostly i don't
It's funny how time reduces a keepsake
To a footnote

The wheres and the whens that meant
So much then
Have gracefully moved along
My memory had mercy on me and let me go on
Considering everything you meant i thought
I never would forget

Here's us dancing on your birthday
July 29th or 28th
The song was
