I took a picture of you
Using my analog camera
Hoping to capture that smile
After so many years
I took a picture of you
Using my analog camera
Hoping to capture that soul
After so many songs i wrote
When i got the pictures back
Your face were all in the dark
It got me wondering why
Then i realized
You will always be
A locked character
Forever in silhouette for me
Something i can’t reach
Something i can’t touch
You will always stay
A faded memory
Hanging on in my mind
My camera did not lie
It’s telling me the truth
I took a picture of you
Using my analog camera
Hoping to capture those shades
And your eyes, and your face
I took a picture of you
Using my analog camera
Hoping to capture that time
Before you went away again
When i got the pictures back
Your face were all in the dark
It got me wondering why
Then i realized
You will always be
A locked character
Forever in silhouette for me
Something i can’t reach
Something i can’t touch
You will always stay
A faded memory
Hanging on in my mind
My camera did not lie
It’s telling me the truth
Still when i got those pictures back
Your face were all in the dark
It got me wondering why
Now i understand
You will always be
A locked character
Forever in silhouette for me
Something i can’t reach
Something i can’t touch
You will always stay
A faded memory
Hanging on in my mind
My camera did not lie
It’s telling me the truth
