Throwing Away Memories
Country Heartstrings

Verse 1:
I’m cleaning out my closet, can’t believe it’s been years,
Found your old pictures, and they brought back some tears.
Your laughter echoes softly in these empty walls,
But it's time to let go, I hear the freedom call.

Chorus:
I finally threw away your scrunchie,
But it felt like so much more,
I wonder if you still think about me,
My hoodies still hung up in your closet door.
I think you finally moved on,
But I’m still here dreaming,
In this place where love once bloomed, it still feels like you’re gleaming.

Verse 2:
I picked up your makeup, just a shade of brown hair,
Reminds me of the nights we danced without a care.
Each little trinket tells a story of our past,
But every memory seems to linger, every shadow cast.

Chorus:
I finally threw away your scrunchie,
But it felt like so much more,
I wonder if you still think about me,
My hoodies still hung up in your closet door.
I think you finally moved on,
But I’m still here dreaming,
With these memories that echo loud, my heart is still scheming.

Bridge:
Sometimes I see your smile in the stars at night,
I fantasize about you, everything feels so right.
But besides these left-behind, bittersweet relics,
It’s time for my heart to heal, to take off these rose-tinted spectacles.

Chorus:
I finally threw away your scrunchie,
But it felt like so much more,
I wonder if you still think about me,
My hoodies still hung up in your closet door.
I think you finally moved on,
But I’m still here dreaming,
Letting go of yesterday, but your ghost still feels redeeming.

Outro:
So here’s to the memories, I’ll cherish and I’ll keep,
But it’s time to let go, and not lose any sleep.
Gonna face tomorrow, one step at a time,
But I’ll never forget the love, that once felt like a climb.
