| Things You’ll Keep | |
| Sat outside the darkened house, reading one of your old letters | |
| I’d carried it from town to town | |
| Sometimes hoped for you things got better | |
| It says “We got a place by the river now, | |
| the rooms are full of light—it’s still our town | |
| If there’s such a thing as a second chance I want it now” | |
| That’s what it says | |
| Things you’ll keep | |
| Some things you were never meant to lose | |
| The things you keep | |
| Some things the world cannot refuse | |
| Thought there was a way out, | |
| so you took it on your hands and knees | |
| What if your best days are done? How would you plead? | |
| And now that day to day is a hurting thing | |
| You’re tired of all beauty | |
| Said goodbye to your baby face | |
| then just about everything | |
| Things you’ll keep | |
| Some things you were never meant to lose | |
| The things you keep | |
| Some things the world cannot refuse | |
| Everybody was skinny then | |
| Nobody said you wouldn’t win | |
| Said goodbye to your baby face | |
| then just about everything | |
| Things you’ll keep | |
| Some things you were never meant to lose | |
| The things you keep | |
| Some things the world cannot refuse | |
| How do you plead? |
