Christine Fellows - Souvenirs Lyrics
Hazard lights at rush hourblinking back those yearsAnd wonder how you got hereThe silver pass, so closeThese souvenirs betray youAbsent warnings nailed to hydro polesCrosswords hidden in the landscapeThis place you almost call homeCould you bring me back a cardinal,From Kentucky or that blue-eyed doveThat followed you from TexasThis time, they might be enoughTravel time follows the stop clockIn the dashboard. Stop the carIf you can't bridge the distance,Then tell me who canThese souvenirs will weigh upon you‘Til you find something for everyone,Could you bring me back a cardinal,From Kentucky or that blue-eyed doveThat followed you from TexasThis time, they might be enoughCould you bring me back a coin rubbed smoothAnd run over by a passing truck?Could you call me when you're overheadSo I can run out to the front lawn and wave you on?
