Souvenirs
Lyre le temps Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sit down, I'm looking at your picture
Feels like, you're far away from me
Maybe, you're close maybe you're high up
But, I won't forget our souvenirs
Sit down, I'm looking at your picture
Feels like, you're far away from me
Maybe, you're close maybe you're high up
But, I won't forget our souvenirs
Sometimes it happens like that you loose a friend
Someone that's really close
And I can tell you how much we were close
Something you've never ever seen before
But all the joyful moments that were spent
Together a thousand miles driven it lasts
Forever I can smile now
I remember what a smile, I hope you do
Sometimes it's bitter like that
Don't care enough
We do it fast but now it's done
For you and me now the problem now it's done
What could you do
Tell me what could you do
Sometimes it feels like that you loose a friend
A brother forever
You can always remember 'cause it's in you
And I will always remember 'cause it's in me
Sit down, I'm looking at your picture
Feels like, you're far away from me
Maybe, you're close maybe you're high up
But, I won't forget our souvenirs
Sit down, I'm looking at your picture
Feels like, you're far away from me
Maybe, you're close maybe you're high up
But, I won't forget our souvenirs
Sometimes it burns and like that it turns to ashes
It leaves you fighting with your fold??
'Cause the boss of us know is that the???
I think you do
Sometimes it ends and like that you loose a part
A part of your soul
There was one for me and you
I can see your part in me
Sit down, I'm looking at your picture
Feels like, you're far away from me
Maybe, you're close maybe you're high up
But, I won't forget our souvenirs
Sit down, I'm looking at your picture
Feels like, you're far away from me
Maybe, you're close maybe you're high up
But, I won't forget our souvenirs
Sit down, I'm looking at your picture
Feels like, you're far away from me
Maybe, you're close maybe you're high up
But, I won't forget our souvenirs
Sit down, I'm looking at your picture
Feels like, you're far away from me




Maybe, you're close maybe you're high up
But, I won't forget our souvenirs
