[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

[Verse 3]

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
