Locket
(Ove Ritola)

You gave me a locket
Put your picture inside
But I never wore it
Said it wasn't my style
Instead I had it in my pocket
So I could have a look whenever I'd want
And sometimes I'd forget
It was you that the picture was of

Through yesterdays
I carried it around
Through darkened days
I carried it around
Gold, silver, black'n'white and you

You gave me a locket
It shone silver and gold
But I never showed it
To anyone at all
And time came I lost it
To the sea one warm summer night
I guess I just dropped it
With the memories from my mind

Through yesterdays
I carried it around
Through darkened days
I carried it around
Gold, silver, black'n'white and you

You gave me a locket
Put your picture inside
And sometimes I'd forget
Just who the picture was of
