Lyrics

    Wherever I go
    I take a little piece of you
    I collect
    I reject
    Photographs I took of you
    
    The towns I passed through
    So many faces
    So many places
    I have got to have a memory
    Or I have never been there
    I have never had you
    
    I can't remember
    Give me a reminder
    I collect
    I reject
    
    Memorabilia
    (Now girl… only it's flavor… bow down here)
    
    Keychains and snowglobes
    The taste of your sweat
    The look in your eye
    I have been inside you
    I know what it feels like
    (Wet as it is… the whiter the honey)
    I collect
    I reject
    
    Memorabilia
    (Goodies come in here all day)
    Give me a reminder
    I can't remember
    I collect
    I reject
