Pictures of You

I've been looking so long at these pictures of you That I almost believe that they're real I've been living so long with my pictures of you That I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel Remembering you standing quiet in the rain As I ran to your heart to be near You were stone white, so delicate, lost in the cold How I always held close in your fear Remembering you running soft through the night You were bigger, brighter and wider than snow And screamed at the make-believe, screamed at the skies And you finally found all your courage to let it all go Remembering you fallen into my arms Crying for the death of your heart You were stone white, so delicate, lost in the cold How I always hold close you in the dark Remembering you how you used to be Slow drowned, you were angels, so much more than everything Hold for the last time, then slip away quietly Open my eyes, but I never see anything If only I'd thought of the right words I could have held on to your heart If only I'd thought of the right words I wouldn't be breaking apart all my pictures of you Looking so long at these pictures of you Will never hold on to your heart Looking so long for the words to be true Will always just breaking apart my pictures of you There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more Than to feel you deep in my heart There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more Than to never feel the breaking apart My pictures of you Thank you
