I’m looking through the past that I have stored
The photographs, the battered toys I adored
Unsettled dust catches the light of the sun
A breeze provides a stage to dance upon
I smile and I laugh when I think of you
I’m numb to the pain every time I do
For the biggest grin that I ever knew
Belonged to you
A memory is captured in each spot
As if the hands of time had stopped
That frozen moment satisfies my heart
And eases every day we spent apart
I smile and I laugh when I think of you
I’m numb to the pain every time I do
For the biggest grin that I ever knew
Belonged to you
This is about looking through all the old junk and memories that you haven’t thrown out and smiling when you remember all the good times. I remember looking through old toys in the loft and seeing all the dust in a shaft of light and that’s what inspired the song.
