Jim Croce : Photographs & Memories : Classic Hits (2004)
Photographs and memories
Christmas cards you sent to me
All that I have are these
To remember you
Memories that come at night
Take me to another time
Back to a happier day
When I called you mine
Chorus:
But we sure had a good time
When we started way back when
Morning walks and bedroom talks
Oh how I loved you then
Summer skies and lullabies
Nights we couldn’t say good-bye
And of all of the things that we knew
Not a dream survived
Photographs and memories
All the love you gave to me
Somehow it just can’t be true
That’s all I’ve left of you
(Repeat Chorus)
What a beautiful song…When I first picked up a guitar I told my teacher I want to learn this song. A lot of people don't know Jim's partner and guitar player also died that day his name was Maury Meuhleisen (I hope that's right he was a great musician) That chunk of wood & strings has taken me around the world, but I'd never fly in a small plane, for obvious reasons. What a loss.
This song is gorgeous yet devastating. I find it hard to listen to because it cuts so deep.

My favorite Jim Croce song. He was so amazing. It all seems like it was only yesterday. Wherever has the time gone?
Another beautiful song by Jim Croce, he was great!
How I loved old songs back then… It's nice to hear them now again. 🙂
It was in college when I first hear Jim Croce's songs and instantly fell in love with his voice. I was heartbroken learning he already passed away, the only consolation is knowing that his music lives on. RIP Jim Croce.
Who wouldn’t love this song…!
This songs pretty much sums it up. You learn that with time….
I remember my Mom cried when Jim Croce died in the airplane crash. She passed in 1997. Now when I hear this song I think of her and usually shed a tear.
Jim was my Dad's favorite musician. My Dad had a guitar attached to him at all times. He played Jim everyday. All his songs. i knew them all by heart all through my childhood and young adult life. I miss my Dad, and I hear his spirit in Jim's songs.
After 45 years, still have the photographs and memories. That's all.
I saw Jim and Maury Feb 2, 1973 at Harper College in Palatine, just a few rows back from Maury. This then 16 year old was captivated by their music and stories that night- and especially Maury’s amazing guitar work. They were on ABC “In Concert” that same night right after I got home from the show. They immediately headed for the top from that night on, only to be lost later in September of that same year. It still saddens me as I write this, now at 61 years old. What incredible music those 2 young guys could make……I wore their albums out.
God why
did he
Have
To
Die?

211 people gave this a thumbs down? God help them! Probably Justin Bieber fanatics!!
Always play at Christmas time. It's a Christmas song.
Oh My God, where was he all these years in my life. Give him 2 mins and he can make you cry, this guy is GOD . Lots of meanings packed in the span of 2 mins.
For AnnMaree..
reminds me of my past Wives
Back when I was a child my parents used to listen to this, now I'm 20 I'm still listening to this. ❤️
he;s the other guy we listened to Steve, remember??
we sure had a good time way back then
Un like si la escuchas en el 2018
Jim..el hombre de las canciones tristes reflejo de su vida! Siempre te recordaremos,!!!
This song grows younger the older we become
next to "lover's cross" this is his saddest.
Belíssima! Amo muito!
I am approaching my wife's anniversary. We were married for 10 years. There is an empty space where my heart used to be. There is soo much I miss. Her smile. As the song says, that's all I have left is "Photographs and Memories" I know men aren't supposed to cry. But as the say grows nearer. I find myself crying more and more.
His lyrics for a few of his songs he wrote for his daughter, like Time in a bottle
