Shoebox 歌詞

On the top shelf of the closet Beneath a blanket of dust I found my old, faded shoebox Filled with memories of us It was just out of reach Like it was tryin' to hide I carefully pulled it down And took a peek inside There were folded up notes That you'd slip me during class I had such a crush on you It's a miracle I passed This photo strip from the mall Your silly smile, my sideways grin Swore I'd never forget that day And now I'm right back there again It's just an old shoebox With its corners bent and curled But I remember a time When it held my whole world We were the perfect pair The couple everybody knew I never imagined, like those shoes That someday I'd outgrow you The tickets from our last date I promised not to make a scene You were leaving town the next day To chase your college dream Yeah, we tried to keep it going As the weeks flew on by But some things don't last forever No matter how hard you try It's just an old shoebox With its corners bent and curled But I remember a time When it held my whole world We were the perfect pair The couple everybody knew I never imagined, like those shoes That one day I'd outgrow you And I can't help but wonder If you have a box like mine Which memories would you keep Or do I even cross your mind It's just an old shoebox With its corners bent and curled But I remember a time When it held my whole world We were the perfect pair The couple everybody knew I never imagined, like those shoes That one day I'd outgrow you
