I've fallen in love with a girl in a photo |
[00:18.78] |
She's kissing a boy who I swear I once knew |
[00:24.51] |
The picture is faded, the image is distant |
[00:29.47] |
But I think that this girl must be you |
[00:35.30] |
Her hair is reflecting the afternoon sunlight |
[00:40.48] |
She's thrown back her head and she's laughing with him |
[00:45.61] |
He's standing along side as he catches her fall |
[00:50.84] |
But they're both leaning out on a limb |
[00:56.78] |
I'd love to find those two people and ask them |
[01:02.32] |
How do you hold such a delicate dove |
[01:07.70] |
What do you use when you lose the excitement |
[01:12.77] |
And how do you hold on to love |
[01:29.11] |
I've fallen in love with a cupboard of spices |
[01:34.68] |
Reflecting the colors and flavors of us |
[01:39.98] |
All of the bottles and boxes and labels |
[01:45.08] |
All the directions and fuss |
[01:50.85] |
A teaspoon of anger, a cup of confusion |
[01:55.97] |
A pinch of denial and one paradox |
[02:01.34] |
Carefully measuring emotions for so long |
[02:06.34] |
All dried out and kept in a box |
[02:11.88] |
I'd love to ask all the spices and powders |
[02:16.86] |
Just when does your potency fail |
[02:22.42] |
If we keep something long enough up on the shelf |
[02:27.36] |
Will it always be bound to grow stale |
[02:54.38] |
I've fallen love with a closet of clothing |
[02:59.78] |
Your blouses and dresses, your robe and your shoes |
[03:05.08] |
The cats like to sleep on the shelf with the blankets |
[03:10.31] |
But I prefer sleeping with you |
[03:16.19] |
All of this time we've been hanging together |
[03:21.22] |
Our fibers and threads touching days after days |
[03:26.14] |
Sometimes so soft I could never remove you |
[03:31.53] |
Other times rubbing wrong ways |
[03:36.94] |
I'd like to know how those clothes in the closet |
[03:41.94] |
Survive all the wrinkles, the rips and the stains |
[03:47.54] |
And what do we do when our sizes are changing |
[03:52.75] |
And how do we grow with the gains |
[03:58.20] |
I've fallen in love with some girl in a photo |
[04:03.81] |
How can I hold such a delicate dove |
[04:09.24] |
What can we do to recapture excitement |
[04:14.48] |
And how do we hold on to love? |
[04:26.39] |
How do you hold on to love? |
[04:40.93] |
