Photograph of You
Written by Todd Thompson (BMI)

Verse 1
I'm sitting here looking at a photograph of you that time may fade away. As I look in your eyes (quite to my surprise) I still love you, babe.

I'm sitting here staring at you with my crying eyes (that time may never dry). I understand that I was such a fool to ever leave your side.

Bridge
I'm sitting here doing time, drowning in all the tears I've cried.
The moment's slipped away--a moment that time can't replace.

Verse 2
After awhile how can I smile? How can I be clear? I hoped on a prayer that didn't go anywhere it just disappeared.

After awhile how can I smile, when the daylight turns to gray? I wished on a star that didn't go very far it merely faded away.

Bridge
I'm sitting here doing time, drowning in all the tears I've cried.
The moment's slipped away--a moment that time can't replace.

Chorus
Ooh, Lord how can I carry on?
Ooh, Lord how can I smile when all I had is gone?
Ooh, Lord how can I live without love?
Ooh, Lord how can I hide the hurt
that I feel inside of me now? How can I go on?

You looked away from me here, and I'll never go back (no, I'll never go back) again.
