Keep the pictures flickering
Keep the records crackling as they play
A blanket for the things
In the attic where they're all stuffed away
It makes me live life twice
Adds the sugar and it adds the spice
All the blue is fading now
What remains is the warmth of the yellow and red
And as the light gets dimmed
The same old songs will play in my head
The dust twists reality
Things will never be again like they were not
Fade into memory
We'll never have again what we never got
