We talked about our memories | We talked about our memories (They asked) | ||
They asked | When I die, what would be the one I'd choose to take with me | ||
If I had to choose, what would it be? | If I had to choose, what would it be? | ||
Even the last few years have had a couple goddamn good memories | Even the last few years have had a couple goddamn good memories | ||
Room 54, Hotel | Room 54, Hotel Jardi (Monica) | ||
If I had to choose, I'd live with you | If I had to choose, I'd live with you in Room 54, eternally | ||
Angels drift in and away | Angels drift in and away | ||
