The Love We Made
Reba McEntire · Other Songs - Reba McEntire
And that shoebox full of photographs, got lost in my last move
I gave away that old twin bed, where you and I first laid
But after all this time, I've still got the love we made
That old beat-up car, we dated in, has finally turned to rust
And the first rose that you gave me, has finally turned to dust
But all those tender nights we shared, are never gonna fade
Cos after all this time, I've still got the love we made
I re-feel every feeling, we felt when we touched
Cos even though we fell apart, I kept a part of us
I've held on to every time, we held each other tight
And promised, that no matter what, we'd never say goodbye
I don't have a souvenir, although I meant to save
But right here in my heart, I've still got the love we made
Right here in my heart, I've still got the love we made.
