"From Souvenirs to Souvenirs" is a song by Greek Singer Demis Roussos from his 1975 album Souvenirs. It was also released as a single (in 1975 on Philips Records).

The song was written by Demis Roussos' compatriots composer Stélios Vlavianós and poet Alec R. Costandinos (by the same people who earlier wrote "Forever and Ever", Roussos' biggest hit of all time).

In 1975, the same year Roussos released the song, it was performed in Greek by Greek Singer Marinella, but her version went unnoticed.

A lonely room and empty chair

Another day so hard to bear

The things around me that I see remind me of

The past and how it all used to be

From souvenirs to more souvenirs I live

With days gone by when our hearts had all to give

From souvenirs to more souvenirs I live

With dreams you left behind

I'll keep on turning in my mind

There'll never be another you

No one will share the worlds we knew

And now that loneliness has come to take your place

I close my eyes and see your face.
