photographs & memories...

i keep your picture by my bed
for when i'm feeling sad,
and i don't know why i would be.
the way your smile looks so real
i feel like i could start to understand your grace.
but i...
i don't understand why you're not here with me.
and i...
i don't even wanna know where else
you'd be.

cause i have photographs and memories of the times
when you weren't on my mind and i was alone.
and i have poetry and drawings of my life
when you weren't on my side and i didn't know
just what is love...

writing moments on the wall with different colors
keeps my mind away from missing you.
and i can't wait to fall asleep
to slip into my dreams,
where we can dance upon a star..
and i...
will be as patient as a boy in love could ever be.
and i...
don't feel like i was real until you were
a part of me.

cause i have photographs and memories of the times
when you weren't on my mind and i was alone.
and i have poetry and drawings of my life
when you weren't on my side and i didn't know
just what is...

i need you back, i need you back,
i need you here.
i need your smile, i need your eyes,
i need you dear.

every line on your face
makes a beautiful maze
for my eyes to trace...

photographs and memories of the time
you weren't on my mind,
and i was alone...
