As the optical shutters close
memory's vault swings open wide
the filtered light of spent days glows
Bright flashes from childhood expose
nursery rhymes with school days tied
as the optical shutters close
Playing 'neath the shady willows
through carefree moments swiftly glide
the filtered light from spent days glows
Ecstasy of our wedding pose
through endearing years stride for stride
as the optical shutters close
Years of hard labor interpose
on mellowed vine the fruits now dried
the filtered light from spent days glows
On last frame, grand kids, hobbies froze
through the shadows reflections slide
as the optical shutters close
the last flicker from spent days glows
memory's vault swings open wide
the filtered light of spent days glows
Bright flashes from childhood expose
nursery rhymes with school days tied
as the optical shutters close
Playing 'neath the shady willows
through carefree moments swiftly glide
the filtered light from spent days glows
Ecstasy of our wedding pose
through endearing years stride for stride
as the optical shutters close
Years of hard labor interpose
on mellowed vine the fruits now dried
the filtered light from spent days glows
On last frame, grand kids, hobbies froze
through the shadows reflections slide
as the optical shutters close
the last flicker from spent days glows
