Keepsake - Dana Fuchs, Jon Diamond

There was snow on the playground

And an old stone wall

We fought 'till we cried then we laughed at it all

I remember knowing I’d finally found home

Every line on your face was etched in my mind

Every scar you misplaced uncovered all mine

I remember knowing how good it could be

I remember knowing it wasn’t for me

All we keep we can’t let go

Happens to be what we needed the most

All we keep we can’t let go

And that’s all I need — all I needed to know

A small empty garden so full of hope

Another long night when I never came home

I remember knowing you were planting those seeds

With every weapon I had I tore at your heart

Every word that I said, meant to rip us apart

I remember knowing this wasn’t the end

I remember knowing we’d meet here again

All we keep we can’t let go

Happens to be what we needed the most

All we keep we can’t let go

And that’s all I need — all I needed to know
