Lyrics
?TEST OF TIME?
(MORRIS-SCOTT)
A BOX OF THINGS THAT NO ONE WANTS,
POCKET KNIFE, A SAILOR?S TRUNK
CAT?S EYE MARBLE CUT IN HALF
FADED YELLOW OLD PHOTOGRAPH
(CHORUS)
IT STOOD THE TEST OF TIME
TOO SOON LEFT BEHIND
FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO FIND
IT STOOD THE TEST OF TIME
A LOVING HEART THAT NEVER STRAYED
A LOVE THAT WENT BEYOND THE GRAVE
WEDDING RING, A SIMPLE BAND
FOR FIFTY YEARS IT NEVER LEFT HIS HAND, BUT (CHORUS)
MANY THINGS PASS THROUGH YOUR HANDS
BUT DON?T YOU BE MISLED
?CAUSE LOVE IS LOVE, NOT FADE AWAY
JUST LIKE BUDDY HOLLY SAID?
MEMORIES OF HAPPY TIMES
HONEYMOONS AND NURSERY RHYMES
HOUSES FALL AND CARS MAY RUST
THIS IS SOMETHING YOU CAN ALWAYS TRUST:
AND IT STOOD THE TEST OF TIME?
FROM THE TORPEDOES CD ?DOWNRANGE? ON FAST FUSE RECORDS
