Connie Francis - Among My Souvenirs Lyrics






There's nothing left for me
Of days that used to be
They're just a memory
Among my souvenirs

Some letters sad and blue
A photograph or two
I see a rose from you
Among my souvenirs

A few more tokens rest
Within my treasure chest
And, though they do their best
To give me consolation

I count them all apart
And, as the teardrops start
I find a broken heart
Among my souvenirs

I count them all apart
And, as the teardrops start
I find a broken heart
Among my souvenirs

Connie Francis Among My Souvenirs Comments
  1. W.... S....

    I was but a naive 13 year old in the frozen Midwest when this song came over the airwaves courtesy of WLS in Chicago. How I loved it then. And in 2020, sixty years later, it still resonates. It still moves me. It still just fills me with emotion. It is a true classic sung by a woman with a voice that is truly a gift from the gods.

  2. d.... p....

    she has a voice like an angels fart

  3. I.... R....

    קוני פרנסיס פשוט מקסימה חבל לא באה לארץ

    most familiar chair and remember those days of just having a
    lot of FUN and the people that enjoyed it with you .

  13. b.... C....

  14. J.... M....

    What a beautiful feminine and sexy voice she has. She is an outstanding singer which is really worth to hear and enjoy. Sixty years have passed since this great song was released but it is not outdated by any means. And it is so superior to most of the songs being made today.

  15. P.... P....

    Connie sings harmony in this song. Beautiful and magical.

  16. K.... N....

  21. t.... l....

  23. B.... M....

    Just fabulous.

  24. D.... E....

    What voice from the great Connie Francis this is one of the songs she ever made wow.

  25. r.... ....

    I'd never heard this song before. Last night at karaoke, July 28th, 2019, the computer randomly selected this song for me to sing. I did okay with it. I sang it more mellow. I'm a baritone.

    r.... ....

    This was my first time hearing her sing it. 10:35 PM on July 29th, 2019.

  26. P.... M....

    Beautiful voice

  31. B.... M....

    Connie Francis still gives me the shivers.

    B.... M....

    Bill Moss...Oh, yes. Thank God for Youtube and let's thank whoever keeps posting Connie's fantastic songs. I've loved this girl since...Ha, quite a while ago. Please don't bother to respond to this reply. I simply wanted to echo your comment.

    B.... M....

    @Janett Grady No bother Janett! There's an effortless V8 quality about Connie's voice, so she can hit and hold top notes that others would avoid. Comparisons with others are fairly pointless ; there is no comparison.

  32. S.... R....

    Breathtakingly beautiful.

  33. A.... ....

    My nan singing it right now with me :)

  34. S.... R....

    Amazing voice.

  35. K.... ....

    Why this is not played on radio nowadays , instead of today´s pop shit.

  36. p.... ....

    America that does not exist anymore ,

  37. L.... S....

    Easily, the finest female singer of the late 1950s and early 1960s. Connie Francis The Great!

    L.... S....

    I complete agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  38. J.... G....

    For me, this was one of the first tearjerkers in my life, if not the first...and hearing it now (2019), it still makes me cry. Connie could bring tears to your eyes, that's for sure. Her every song was great, but I favored Connie's puppy-love, boy-meets-girl, boy-loses-girl kind of songs.. But that's me. Thank you for being YOU, Connie. I love you, the world loves you.

  39. C.... D....

    Beautiful

  40. L.... 0....

    Can I just say how beautiful her voice is.....

  41. D.... B....

    Those of us of a certain ancient age were privileged to hear her recordings on first release. She was and still is a treasure, even though the idiots at the Rock 'n Roll HoF deny Connie her well earned legacy in the glory years of the genre.

  42. K.... C....

    There's nothing left for me
    Of days that used to be
    They're just a memory
    Among my souvenirs
    Some letters sad and blue
    A photograph or two
    I see a rose from you
    Among my souvenirs
    A few more tokens rest
    Within my treasure chest
    And, though they do their best
    To give me consolation
    I count them all apart
    And, as the teardrops start
    I find a broken heart
    Among my souvenirs
    I count them all apart
    And, as the teardrops start
    I find a broken heart
    Among my souvenirs

    K.... C....

    There are so many souvenirs. I just wish I had just one today.Why did I not take things more seriously?

    K.... C....

    Nice words

  43. D.... E....

    This was a huge crossover hit for the great Connie Francis got up to number 10 on the R&B charts.

  44. U.... ....

    Wow what a beautiful song great singer 💞💞💞

  45. j.... c....

    Such an angelic voice!!!

  46. D.... M....

    Connie is a Beautiful singer nobody can ever match her style & Voice 💕💕💕💕💕

    D.... M....

    Donna...Agnetha Faltskog, ABBA's lead singer, idolized Connie and copied Connie's style with a voice matching Connie's....easily noticeable after ABBA broke up and Agnetha performed on her own. If you love Connie like I do, you'll love Agnetha.

  47. N.... S....

    one of a kind voice.

  48. P.... E....

    artista y musica cuendo tenia 15 años, y el mundo me ofresia un mundo de posibilidades, ilusiones promesaS hermosas de un futuro esperanzador

  55. t.... l....

    cast my memory back there.

  56. S.... S....

    I met her mother at the grocery store when I was little in Newark, NJ. She was handing out Connie pins. Connie went to my high school and every morning her music would be playing before classes started. I saw her at the West End Movies in Irvington, NJ (around 1958) and the show was great. She was appearing with Jimmy
    Darren, God rest his soul.

  57. W.... H....

    William Henry
    Perfect lyrics and orchestration and chorus.
    Connie so beautiful a voice of an angel.

  58. R.... S....

    The year I married the biggest regret of my stupid life..

  59. B.... B....

    pretty face and voice

  60. J.... M....

    As Connie says we when we reach a certain age have a lot of love souvenirs. Her voice is great really and she sang with such feeling. And I still like to hear her whenever I have time to do so.

  61. M.... ....

    The Best Years Of Our Lives - anyone?

  62. r.... r....

    very pleasing to my ear and it touches the inner part of myself

  63. P.... N....

    Sure brings back memories of forgotten love oh!so long ago.

  64. S.... M....

    This old songs really bring back memories of old time love this songs very much.

  65. B.... B....

    Connie was blessed with one of the purest voices you’ll ever hear. What a gift, it’s as liquid gold somehow spun into a fine silk fabric that wraps one in Love.

    B.... B....

    true enough!

  66. b.... c....

  69. J.... D....

    A very memorable sweet singing voice I heard as a kid during the PHONOGRAPH ERA with the use of so Bulky Vacuum Tubes Amplifiers in the middle 1970s.

  70. I.... A....

    Great !!!! What a voice so natural

  71. A.... D....

  73. �.... ....

    68歳男性、コニーフランシスは世界最高の女性歌手、彼女を超える女性歌手はもう二度と現れない。魅了されて何度聞いても心が溶けます。

  74. D.... E....

    The great Connie Francis best song she ever right here

  75. H.... C....

    This was my dad's favourite song. Now it's mine xxx

  76. T.... S....

    Dzisiaj nikt tak nie spiewa

  77. M.... ....

    A very strong melody from 1927, I woke up today with this version on my mind . Today I'll work on my own guitar arrangement and I might perform it with harmonies a la Connie. Connie was the Queen of double-tracking (over dubbing) and she did that better than anyone else.

  78. �.... �....

    I love very much this song. Well done mrs Francis.

  79. M.... S....

    great music

  80. D.... D....

    9 years old in the back of the Rambler, headed for Huntington Beach So Cal.
    Great memories.

  81. J.... M....

    Connie is such a great singer really and this song has a new meaning for me now I am old. Indeed we oldsters have a lot of souvenirs we carry with us whether they are physical objects like our wedding ring or mental ones only of those nice moments we have had in the past.

  82. s.... u....

    I WOULD LIKE TO BE AMONG YOUR SOUVENIRS

  83. C.... C....

    My Mom & I used to pantomine her songs when I was a little girl in the 50’s

    C.... C....

    Camille Conley

  84. r.... r....

    I still have the Concert ticket of the Iron Butterflies, that tony took me to my first concert. I still have some souvenirs from my first love after 48 years ago.

  85. M.... M....

    This song SO belongs to Connie that it is as if nobody else recorded this immortal work before, or since.
    Just another one
    of her insuperable
    love notes to the
    world. Edgar Leslie (1885-1976 ) born
    in Stamford, Connecticut, wrote the lyrics. He lived for 91 years. Lawrence
    Wright (1888-1964), born
    in Leicester, U.K.,
    composed the music. He died at
    age 76. (He composed many songs under the pseudonym Horatio Nicholls.) This song
    is so ineffably morose that I can
    only listen to it one time, and then
    not again for a LONG time! I very much imagine that this is a common practice
    for most everyone who likes this song. It has been
    said: "There is nothing more beautiful than a
    perfect tragedy."

  86. S.... a....

    enchante

  87. J.... M....

    This is a very nice and true song. What is left of those loves we had in our youth? Some souvenirs and memories only. And we still remember them many years later. But of course we don't get carried away and love those we have around us after all the past is the past and through nice it is gone and can never be retrieved.

  88. C.... P....
