Billy Joel wrote a song titled “Souvenirs” on one of his first albums that included the following lyric:
A picture postcard, a folded stub
A program… from the play
File away… the photograph
From your holiday
But your mementos, will turn to dust
For that’s the price you pay
Every year, is a souvenir
That slowly fades… away
