 (Disclaimer: I’m not 100 percent sure that these are the actual lyrics, simply what I think they are when I listened to the song numbers of times. It’s not the most accurate way to learn lyrics but since Cook has yet to release an official lyrics section for the songs that did make it on to the album, this is the only way I have.)

Hope you had a good time while you were here
such a beautiful view for a beautiful girl, this time of year
Now here we are looking back, through wasted photographs
Blank pages filling up our past
No, it’s not funny, but all that I can do is laugh 
You can keep my heart, the one you took when you walked* away
You can keep my heart, it’s got no use here, call it a souvenir, call it a souvenir 

Quite a trip that we never should have taken
I just can’t believe how you’ve broken me since you went away
Now all you do is promise everything, tell me you’ll stay
So many signs of decimation missed there (So many signs I guess I missed) 

You can keep my heart; the one you took when you walked away
You can keep my heart it’s got no use here. Call it a souvenir, call it a souvenir 

So many pages that got filled up
So many lessons to learn about love
So many days, so many ways, so many suns, so many rains
All you got was my broken heartHope you had a good time while you were here You can keep my heart, the one you took when you ran away
You can keep my heart, it’s got no use here, call it a souvenir, call it a souvenirYou can keep my heart
You can keep my heart
Call it a souvenir
