[Verse] In the faded seams of a work-worn shirt, There's a secret that Iâve kept close to my heart. A little locket, silver with a dusty shine, Hides a whisper of a love thatâs torn apart. [Pre-Chorus] Every day I feel it, heavy by my side, Like a ghost thatâs holdinâ on, canât run or hide. [Chorus] Oh, that locket in my pocket, holdinâ on to you, A piece of all the dreams we lost, but never knew, Itâs the weight that pulls me down, and lifts me up again, That locket in my pocket, where your memory remains. [Verse] When the evening shadows fall, and the workdayâs done, I touch that little keepsake, see your shining sun. Through the sweat and all the dirt, itâs my quiet prayer, A promise that Iâm keepinâ, even when youâre not there. [Pre-Chorus] Every night I whisper low, hoping you can hear, Through the silence and the pain, Iâm still holding near. [Chorus] Oh, that locket in my pocket, holdinâ on to you, A piece of all the dreams we lost, but never knew, Itâs the weight that pulls me down, and lifts me up again, That locket in my pocket, where your memory remains. [Bridge] So Iâm begginâ, Lord, wonât you ease this aching soul? Unlock the chains that bind me, make my broken heart whole. That silver keeps you close, though youâre miles away, In that locket, I find the strength to face another day. [Chorus] Oh, that locket in my pocket, holdinâ on to you, A piece of all the dreams we lost, but never knew, Itâs the weight that pulls me down, and lifts me up again, That locket in my pocket, where your memory remains. [Chorus] Oh, that locket in my pocket, holdinâ on to you, A piece of all the dreams we lost, but never knew, Itâs the weight that pulls me down, and lifts me up again, That locket in my pocket, where your memory remains. [Outro] That locket in my pocket, where your memory remains...
