Jeannie C. Riley - Box Of Memories Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • The class reunion invitation was delivered to me today
  • It brought back burning mem'ries of a happy yesterday
  • I went to my cedar chest got down on my knees
  • The chest that once was full of hope is now a box of memories
  • As I carefully open up the box my mind wanders back
  • To all the things we used to do me and Billy Jack
  • Here's the first note he wrote and gave me in the hall
  • It asked if I'd stay after school to watch him play football
  • The chest that once was full of hope is now a box of memories
  • Here are the tickets dubbed for my first picture show
  • I'd seen him talkin' to Rita Gail and I almost didn't go
  • The forage I wrote to the senior prom pressed and dried
  • The scarf he tied around my hair for a motorcycle ride
  • The chest that once was full of hope is now a box of memories
  • Here's his lettered sweater with a patch Player of the year
  • And the handkerchief I'd used to wipe away all my tears
  • When he was playing chicken to prove the greatness of his nerve
  • And a speeding car killed my dreams on Dead Man's Kerb
  • The chest that once was full of hope is now a box of memories
  • Yes the chest that once was full of hope is now a box of memories
