Lyrics
While looking through my jewelry drawer
Reflecting on personal belongings, specifically a jewelry drawer.
Beneath some paper, there I saw
Discovery of an address book while going through belongings.
An address book I'd kept throughout the years
The address book has been kept over the years.
It listed all the girls on it
List of names of girls in the address book.
Friends, my list sure has grown
Reflecting on the growth of the list of friends.
Each name brings back the laughter and the tears
Each name triggers memories, both happy and sad.
There were girls that I'd romance with
Recollection of romantic involvement with certain girls.
Girls that I had dance with
Girls he had danced with.
Some whose face that I just can't recall
Some faces are forgotten or not easily recalled.
There were girls I kissed and lied to
Admitting to kissing and lying to some girls.
Some I couldn't, and though I tried to
Failed attempts to lie to some girls.
The name of the game was love
The central theme of the experiences was love.
And I played it with them all
Expressing that he engaged in the game of love with all the girls.
There was Mary, Martha, Diana, Eva, Josie
List of numerous girls' names he had romantic involvement with.
