Faces and Places - Tom Paxton

There are places I have been

Faces I knew way back when

I loved them all

I loved them in their time

They are all my yesterdays

We smiled and went our separate ways

We all said, ciao

Of course, I miss them now

Oh faces and places

They all left indelible traces

On my soul

Wherever it’s going

Faces and places

Spun my soul in gossamer laces

God knows how

I miss them now

Oh, I know the past is past

And the changes come so very fast

You blink your eye

Another day goes by

But your memory won’t let go

And every day the feelings grow

You think you’re strong

And then you hear one song

And faces and places

They all left indelible traces

On my soul

Wherever it’s going

Faces and places

Spun my soul in gossamer laces

God knows how

I miss them now

Oh, faces and places

They all left indelible traces

On my soul

Wherever it’s going

Faces and places

Spun my soul in gossamer laces

God knows how

I miss them now
