He's Got You

Lyrics

I got the picture that you gave to me

And it's signed with love just like it used to be

The only thing different, the only thing new

I got the picture, he's got you

I got the records that we used to share

And they still sound the same as when you were here

The only thing different, the only thing new

I got the records and he's got you

I got your memory

Or has it got me?

I really don't know

But I know it won't let me be

I got your class ring that proves you care

And it still looks the same as when you gave it dear

The only thing different, the only thing new

I got these little things and he's got you

I got your memory

Or has it got me?

I really don't know

But I know it won't let me be

I got the picture that you gave to me

And it's signed with love just like it used to be

The only thing different, the only thing new

I got these little things, he's got you


He's got

He's got

He's got

He's got

He's got

He's got you
