Jenny's Souvenirs
Eternal Love Preserved: Jenny's Souvenirs Unveiled
Lyrics
Exchanging, yes, I do's
Expressing vows (commitment) to each other
Forever's coming true
Perpetual commitment becoming a reality
Two needing hearts unite
Two hearts in need coming together
Captured in black and white
Preserved in old photographs
Gathered on yellowed walls
Memories displayed on aged walls
Sixty years says it all
Complete story of sixty years
The loving, the laughter, still after years
The love and joy persisting through time
Are kept alive in Jenny's souvenirs
Memories and keepsakes cherished by Jenny
Tickets from picture shows
Tickets from movies they've seen together
Dried roses, Christmas bows
Dried flowers and festive decorations
Keepsakes from country fairs
Remembrances from local events
Stocked up her vintage wears
Her collection of old-fashioned clothing
She'd never throw them out
Jenny refuses to discard these items
Things they could live without
Trivial items that held sentimental value
He'd kid her and tell her, "You're silly, dear"
Her husband jokingly teases her about them
And he would laugh at Jenny's souvenirs
He laughs fondly at Jenny's keepsakes
Shines on his shaking hand
The wedding ring on his aged hand
That ageless wedding band
A timeless symbol of their marriage
Reminds him and finds him without her near
It reminds him of her absence
And now he lives on Jenny's souvenirs
His life now revolves around Jenny's mementos
He gets by on Jenny's souvenirs
He relies on Jenny's keepsakes to cope
