Lyrics
Old memories, they don't go away
They show up on Christmas Eve
And leave you wishing for childhood days
The lights on the tree, gifts on display
Yeah, it only gets stronger with age
Old memories, they don't go away
Old holiday songs, they bring all the tears
Decorate the empty rooms
And take you back to the joyful years
Friends that you made, carols you sang
Make a symphony just for your ears
Old holiday songs, they bring all the tears
It's like magic, I'm telling ya
Makes you sentimental
It brings out all the best in ya
You ain't gon' ever let go
Old photographs never fade away
They're just frozen there in time
Locked in pretty picture frames
The hands that we held, the love that we gave
It's all black and white, that you can't change
Old photographs never fade away
It's like magic, I'm telling ya
Makes you sentimental
It brings out all the best in ya
You ain't gon' ever let go
Look at me lost in yesterday
Ever since you've been gone
Feels like Christmas don't feel the same
Snow doesn't fall, my heart's out of place and
It only gets stronger with age
Old memories of you and me, they don't go away
