lyrics

PICTURES (FV)

Just a picture in my head
drawn from something that he said
or maybe wrote, I can't remember
Either way, it doesn't matter
Just a picture in my mind
some imagined time
I never gave it much attention
Now it's hardly worth the mention

Still I remember some colors
I could almost see it taking form
Pictures come and go, there will be others
All you do is close your eyes
to realize you still can make some more

Just a picture in my head
drawn from something that he said
Except that he meant something different
Either way, it wasn't vivid
Nothing hanging on my wall
hardly anything at all
Barely even started
Just a doodle in the margin

Still I remember some colors
I could see him coming into view
Pictures come and go, there will be others
All you do is close your eyes
to realize there's always someone new

Just a picture in my head
drawn from something that he said
Except that he meant something different
Either way, it wasn't vivid

Still I remember some colors
I could almost see it taking form
Pictures come and go, there will be others
All you do is close your eyes
to realize you still can make some more

Just a picture in my head
Just a picture in my head
Just a picture in my head
