Souvenirs

When you're fed up shedding too many tears

And your memory seems like just so

many souvenirs

I will come to you to ease the pain

If you want me, tell me now

If I can be of any help, tell me how

Let me love you like a friend

Everything is gonna come right in the end

When you're crying like a poor little child

And you feel like you never could

be reconciled

Don't forget a word of what I'm saying - oh

If you want me, tell me now

If I can be of any help, tell me how

Let me love you like a friend

Everything is gonna come right in the end

Well, I can hold you too tight

I could never let you go

But that wouldn't be right

So, why don't you let me know (let me know)

Let me know what you want to do

Everybody's got a handful of fear

But tomorrow it may only be a souvenir

Of the way it is 'til it went away

If you want me, tell me now

If I can be of any help, tell me how

Let me love you like a friend

Everything is gonna come right in the end

Well, I can hold you too tight

I could never let you go

But that wouldn't be right

So, why don't you let me know

Let me know what you want to do

If you want me, tell me now

If I can be of any help, tell me how

Let me love you like a friend

Everything is gonna come right in the end

Souvenir

No, not another souvenir

No, no, no, no, no, souvenir
