Souvenirs of pioneers

Proof that the West was won

These rotten beams will tumble down

Replaced by the newer ones

Weren't we fine gunfighters in another time?

Were we celebrated writers after the war?

After the war

History repeats itself

But I don't know what for

I got all these souvenirs

But I can't seem to find you anymore

Souvenir

Now you're gone, now you're gone

You were here

I'm moving on, I'm moving on

How does it feel

After I'm gone

To be the ghost in the picture as it disappears

Souvenir

Souvenirs of privateers

Our black flag in the Sun

Was taken down and passed around

And put in a museum

Weren't we fat cat tycoons in the Gilded Age

In flower children costumes in the Bay

High as a summer day

History repeats itself

But I don't know what for

I got all these souvenirs

But I can't seem to find you anymore

Souvenir

Now you're gone, now you're gone

You were here

I'm moving on, I'm moving on

How does it feel

After I'm gone

To be the ghost in the picture as it disappears

Our past is a foreign country

The neighborhoods have changed

I was the fool who got lucky

You were the fool who flew straight

Souvenir

Now you're gone, now you're gone

You were here

I'm moving on, I'm moving on

How does it feel

After I'm gone

To be the ghost in the picture as it disappears

Souvenir

The past is a foreign country

Our neighborhood is changed

And I was the fool who got lucky

You were the fool who flew straight
