[Verse 1]
Faded photographs covered now with lines and creases
Tickets torn in half, memories in bits and pieces
Traces of love long ago that didn't work out right
Traces of love
[Verse 2]
Ribbons in my hair
Simple mingles of pins together
The ring he used to wear, pages from an old love letter
Traces of love long ago that didn't work out right
Traces of love with me tonight
[Verse 3]
You know I close my eyes and I say a little prayer
That in his heart he'll find
A trace of love still there, somewhere
[Outro]
Traces of love in the night
That he'll come back and try
These traces of love from my eyes
Traces
Oh, oh, oh yeah, traces
