Lyrics
All the thingsall the things she gave meall the thingsall the things she gave me
I wrapped them upin a big brown boxtied it with ribbondrove to the dockschecked my timeby the old town clockall the things...I saw the watchmanhe was blowing intocupped handsas he walked to the carhe said "

All good folks are in bedthe day's work is done"I said I'm just lookin' forsomeplace to burnall the thingsall the things that she...all the things that she gave mewhere do I put themwhere can I hide themwhere I won't have to see them?

I'll be dreaming aboutall the things...then I'll dream aboutchurches withgreat tall spirescathedrals and candleschimneys and choirs
I'll dream aboutthat placewhere I set fireall the thingsall the things that she...
