The light has caught your face
Enough to show your smile’s true
You’re slightly out of frame
You’re running from my camera’s view
The world’s a blur as you race through
I’ll catch you if I can
These moments are brand new
When I look into my photographs of you

I watched you drive away
I knew we’d never be the same
I stood to call your name
My voice could find no words that day
You never saw all those nights I cried
Without you in my hands
Somehow I made it through
By sleeping with my photographs of you

I know you think I’m crazy
Sometimes I think that might be true
There are these times when I nearly lose my mind
The times I think I might be losing you

Ours is no easy love
And I am not a simple man
But you and I, we are one
Despite what others may have planned
And I will stay, oh, I will stay
Forever if you want me to
I’ll keep you in my view
If you’ll let me have my photographs of you
