Lyrics
Gold music box, your gift to me
Although you're gone, it plays our song
My Wind-Up Memories
I turn the key, you're here with me
And once again I'm lost within
My Wind-Up Memories
As the melody starts I'm reminded anew
Of an emptiness within
But with each note that plays
There's a memory of you
So I turn the key and live it again
Gold music box, your gift to me
Although you're gone it plays our song
My Wind-Up Memories
I close the lid alone amid
My Wind-Up Memories
