Lyrics
Here’s to the twilight Here’s to the memories These are my souvenirs My mental pictures of everything

Here’s to the late nights Here’s to the firelight These are my souvenirs My souvenirs

I close my eyes and go back in time I can see you smiling, so alive We were so young We had no fear We were so young We had no idea that life was just happening Life was just happening

Here’s to your bright eyes Shining like fireflies These are my souvenirs The memory of a lifetime

We were wide-eyed with everything Everything around us We enlightened by everything Everything

So I close my eyes and go back in time I can see you smiling, so alive I close my eyes and go back in time You were just a child then and so was I We were so young We had no fear We were so young We had no idea

That nothing lasts forever Nothing lasts forever Nothing lasts, nothing last You and me together We’re always now or never

Can you hear me? Can you hear me?

I close my eyes and go back in time I can see you smiling, you’re so alive I close my eyes and go back in time You were wide-eyed You were wide-eyed We were so young We had no fear

We were so young We had just begun A song we knew but had never sung It burned like fire inside our lungs Life was just happening Life was just happening

I wouldn’t change it for anything My souvenirs
