Traces
Buddy Buie, J. R. Cobb, Emory Gordy Jr.
[Verse 1]
Faded photograph
Covered now with lines and creases
Tickets torn in half
Memories in bits and pieces
[Chorus]
Traces of love long ago
That didn't work out right
Traces of love
[Verse 2]
Ribbons from her hair
Souvenirs of days together
The ring she used to wear
Pages from an old love letter
[Chorus]
Traces of love long ago
That didn't work out right
Traces of love with me tonight
[Bridge]
I close my eyes and say a prayer
That in her heart she'll find
A trace of love still there
Somewhere
[Chorus]
Traces of hope in the night
That she'll come back and dry
These traces of tears from my eyes
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
