Photographs

I took a photograph Of your hazel eyes You tried so hard to hide I promised not to laugh And you promised twice But we told each other lies And with a faded map Well we followed lines Not sure just where or why But after all of that Oh searching blind We knew our love was right Every morning I wake up You’re still shaking up my mind babe Every morning a dream without a shape Every night I take down All the pictures in my mind babe Every night I put them back in frames Hey hey hey hey I took a photograph Down by the sea You tasted salty sweet Under the waves and back Well you moved so free And I felt your quick heartbeat The sun like shattered glass It shone pure and clean I felt you lying next to me You put your face in my hand I touched your cheek How we were meant to be Every morning I wake up You’re still shaking up my mind babe Every morning a dream without a shape Every night I take down All the pictures in my mind babe Every night I put them back in frames All the moments that fade Well I’m just trying to rewind babe All the moments I hold evaporate I remember our faces In those Polaroid white frames I remember us laughing as we’d shake I remember us laughing at our graves Hey hey hey hey I took a photograph Of you dancing wild Distraction in your smile Our bodies moving like that Such a long long while Felt like we were made of light The satellites overhead Were carving lines Across the midnight sky Kaleidoscope of our hands Compressing time We danced a thousand nights And I remember all the moments Whispering your name And I can picture how you slowly Turned to me to say How you remember all the years Like they were only days And how you hope that all those memories Never fade away Hey hey Hey hey hey hey All the moments All the moments trying to rewind babe All the moments evaporate Yeah I remember I remember Polaroid white frames I remember laughing as we’d shake I remember laughing at our graves Every morning I wake up You’re still shaking up my mind babe Every morning a dream without a shape Every night I take down All the pictures in my mind babe Every night I put them back in frames All the moments that fade Well I’m just trying to rewind babe All the moments I hold evaporate I remember our faces In those Polaroid white frames I remember us laughing as we’d shake I remember us laughing at our graves
