Attic Dust from Attic Dust by Paul Bezooyen
There's a lot of stuff we hang on to which is intrinsically useless and worthless but it has meaning for us because of the memories and emotions these things conjure up. When we're gone it will all be just junk to everyone else.... or at the very least good stuff for a garage sale. All these old songs will likely be nothing but attic dust when I'm gone, unless they've become meaningful to someone else... Here's hoping.

Lyrics
Some houses have attics
or basements in some,
full of old boxes and things
broken by time.
Old photos and cards,
love letters and jars
things incomplete or obsolete
or saved for rainy day or someday
Some things have meaning
remind us of ways
the struggles of life caused us pain,
or drove us insane
But see how we have grown,
the joys we have known
Life would different if you
had never agreed to venture on with me.
History...of all we chose
hidden in boxes all covered in dust
Oh how these simple things
trigger nostalgia for times long past
The time will come
when our souls depart
And all of these boxes and things,
worn out by time,
will cease to have meaning,
thrown out at the cleaning
by those who follow behind
with dusty old boxes of their own.
History...of all they chose
hidden in boxes all covered in dust
Oh how those simple things
trigger nostalgia for times long past
Some houses have attics
or basements in some,
full of old boxes and things,
broken by time.
Old photos and cards,
love letters and jars
things incomplete or obsolete
or saved for rainy day or someday
or someday
