Souvenirs – Orla Gartland

Yearning
Yearning for the past
It’s like we’re always burning
Through the hourglass
(Like we always do, like we always do)
Learning
Learning as we go
It’s like we’re always searching
For the seeds which sown

Stuck in the rhythm
Same every day
Looking to pictures
I know I should put away
Building towers
To break ’em back down
We’re framing the moment
Ties that keep us bound

Oh! Days and nights
Oh! Oh! And the best of times
We keep our memories like souvenirs
Oh! When we were kids
Oh! Oh! Did you think that it
Would all come back to this?
Oh, looking back
Oh, looking back
And you know, and they know
That we just don’t wanna be forgotten

Stalling
Just to make it last
It’s like we’re always falling
Falling for the past
(Like we always do, like we always do)

Stuck in the rhythm
Same every day
Looking to pictures
I know I should put away
Building towers
To break ’em back down
We’re framing the moment
Ties that keep us bound

Oh! Days and nights
Oh! Oh! And the best of times
We keep our memories like souvenirs
Oh! When we were kids
Oh! Oh! Did you think that it
Would all come back to this?
Oh! Days and nights
Oh! Oh! And the best of times
We keep our memories like souvenirs
Oh! When we were kids
Oh! Oh! Did you think that it
Would all come back to this?
Oh, looking back
Oh, looking back
And you know, and they know
That we just don’t wanna be forgotten
