In a place, deep in my heart
I keep a memory box
which makes me smile or shed a tear
each time that it unlocks
It opens oh, so easily
and sometimes on the hour
it only takes a certain song
or maybe just a flower
and simple things, like sunlight
glinting on the morning dew
can open up that treasure chest
I've filled with thoughts of you
And days just like today, dear mum
will always turn the key
and free those lovely memories
that bring you back to me
