Box of Memories - Jeannie C. Riley[00:00:00]
The class reunion invitation was delivered to me today[00:00:06]
It brought back burning memories of a happy yesterday[00:00:12]
I went to my cedar chest got down on my knees[00:00:18]
The chest that once was full of hope is now a box of memories[00:00:25]
As I carefully open up the box my mind wanders back[00:00:31]
To all the things we used to do me and Billy Jack[00:00:37]
Here's the first note he wrote and gave me in the hall[00:00:43]
It asked if I'd stay after school to watch him play football[00:00:50]
The chest that once was full of hope is now a box of memories[00:00:57]
Here are the tickets dubbed for my first picture show[00:01:09]
I'd seen him talking to Rita Gail and I almost didn't go[00:01:14]
The forage I wore to the senior prom pressed and dried[00:01:20]
The scarf he tied around my hair for a motorcycle ride[00:01:27]
The chest that once was full of hope is now a box of memories[00:01:34]
Here's his lettered sweater with a patch player of the year[00:01:43]
And the handkerchief I'd used to wipe away all my tears[00:01:48]
When he was playing chicken to prove the greatness of his nerve[00:01:54]
And a speeding car killed my dreams on Dead Man's Kerb[00:02:00]
The chest that once was full of hope is now a box of memories[00:02:08]
Yes the chest that once was full of hope is now a box of memories[00:02:16]
