Connie Francis (born Concetta
Rosa Maria Franconero, December 12, 1937) is an American pop singer and
top-charting female vocalist of the late 1950s and early 1960s. Although her chart success waned
in the second half of the 1960s, Francis remained a top concert draw. Despite
several severe interruptions in her career, she is still active as a recording
and performing artist.
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.
