[ Pictures of You ]

The Cure

 

 

 

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 and we kissed as the sky fell in,

Holding you close

How I always held you close in your fear

Remembering you running soft through the night

You were bigger and brighter and whiter than the snow.
Screamed at the make-believe

Screamed at the sky

And you finally found all your courage to let it all go


Remembering you falling into my arms

Crying for the death of your heart

You were stone white, so delicate

Lost in the cold

You were always so lost in the dark

Remembering you how you used to be

Slow drowned you were angels so much more than everything

Oh, hold me for the last time then slip away quietly

Open my eyes but I never see anything

 

If only I had 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

But I never held on to your heart

Looking so long for the words to be true

But 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

All my pictures of you
