- Souvenir Lyrics / with translationsA picture postcard
A folded stub
A program of the play
File away your photographs
Of your holiday
And your mementos
Will turn to dust
But that's the price you pay
For every year's a souvenir
That slowly fades away
Every year's a souvenir
That slowly fades away
A folded stub
A program of the play
File away your photographs
Of your holiday
And your mementos
Will turn to dust
For every year's a souvenir
That slowly fades away
Every year's a souvenir
That slowly fades away
