[ti:]
[ar:John Prine]
[al:The Singin’Mailman Delievers]
[00:23.30] All the snow is turned to water
[00:28.92] Christmas Day has come and gone
[00:34.63] Broken toys and faded colors
[00:40.19] All that left to linger on
[00:45.82] I hate graveyards and old pawnshops
[00:51.36] For they always bring me tears
[00:56.99] I can't forgive the way they rob me
[01:02.51] Of my childhood souvenirs
[01:09.49] Memories they can't be boughten
[01:14.65] They can't be won at the carnivals for free
[01:20.16] Well it took me years
[01:22.85] To get those souvenirs
[01:25.63] And I don't know how they slipped away from me
[01:54.34] Broken hearts and dirty windows
[01:59.75] Make life difficult to see
[02:05.31] That's why last night and this morning
[02:10.69] Always look the same to me
[02:16.60] I hate reading old love letters
[02:22.02] For they always bring me tears
[02:27.69] I can't forgive the way they rob me
[02:33.18] Of my sweetheart's souvenirs
[02:40.25] Memories they can't be boughten
[02:55.58] They can't be won at the carnivals for free
[02:52.99] Well it took me years
[02:50.19] To get those souvenirs
[02:44.86] And I don't know how they slipped away from me
